Take tests early for the best outcomes

If you choose to submit SAT or ACT scores to WSU Spokane, take your first test by the spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and fall of senior year for retakes. WSU Spokane is test-optional and has no Early Action or Early Decision deadline, so do not plan testing around the May 1 financial aid priority deadline; confirm the regular admission deadline before relying on a late fall retake.
