Can you retake your SAT or ACT to get accepted into a better college as a freshman if your currently enrolled in another college?

Answer 1

Everyone can take the SAT's over. The potential school may want to see all of your SAT scores, but if the first scores were very poor the first time it could be helpful. However, in our state, once a student has successfully completed collegecourses, that matters more than standardized tests. Keep in mind standardized test are designed to measure success in college, so if you are succeeding in college, that is what matters. A community/junior college may be an option you want to look at if it other colleges are not accepting you. Hope that helps

For me, when I transferred the only thing they were interested in was my grades at my last school. However there may be state or school placement tests that you can be exempt from by improving your SAT score. What matters most is your transcript.

The SAT and ACT are college admissions tests that are given to high school students. If you are applying to another college, they will not be interested in seeing an improved SAT or ACT score. Their concern will be with your college courses and the grades you received in each. They may also want to see some teacher recommendations from colleges and know why you are interested in attending their school.

Answer 2

Yes! I graduated high school 7 years ago. Nevertheless,

I'm going to take my SAT for the first time in november!

Answer 3

Yes, you can take the SAT Test as an adult. You would have to register on the CollegeBoard website, taking a different route than normal. Hopefully you already took the test before graduation-scores are archived for many years to come, if not forever.

Answer 4

Yes, you could retake either the SAT or ACT to try to get a better score then apply to transfer or to enroll as a new student in a different college. If you want to transfer, you may or may not be a freshman depending upon how many credits are transferred to your new college.

Answer 5

You should check with the college to see if you need to reapply or if it would even help. It's not likely that your performance on the test could improve so dramatically that a school that formerly rejected you would now accept you.

Standardized tests are only a part of the admissions decision. A change of a few points probably isn't going to make much difference.

Answer 6

Yes, you can take the SAT more than one time. You should try to limit the amount of times you take the test to no more than three sittings.

Answer 7

Yes
