Choosing Which Scores Get Sent

The College Board will let you choose which SAT scores get sent to schools. Here's the official new policy. This takes effect in March 2009.

Here are the "Fast Facts" from the policy:

"Fast facts

• Students will be able to select which scores they send to colleges by sitting (test date) for the SAT and by individual test for SAT Subject Tests™.
• Scores from an entire SAT test will be sent—scores of individual sections from different sittings cannot be selected independently for sending.
• Students can send any or all scores to a college on a single report—it will not cost more to send one, multiple, or all test scores.
• Students will be instructed to follow the different score-reporting requirements of each college to which they apply.
• Score Choice will be optional—if students do not use it, all scores will be sent automatically.
• Score Choice can be used on any score report that students send:
  • The four score reports available through online or phone registration (applying to already scored tests) and additional score reports
• Score Choice functionality will be available to all students via the Web or by calling Customer Service toll free (within the United States )"
