If you choose to submit scores to test-optional Ensign, take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year so the summer before senior year can be used for retakes and possible superscoring. Because the Regular Decision deadline is September 1, fall senior-year retakes are unlikely to arrive in time, so treat the summer retake as your last practical chance for Ensign.
