ACT Scores and Test Optional

Students who took the ACT earlier this month can begin accessing their scores online today.  I hope you will be thrilled with the results!  I know that seeing results can be stressful - especially if you didn't do as well as you had hoped.  It is important to remember though that there are many colleges that do NOT require test scores when evaluating applicants for admission.  So, if your score is not what you had hoped it doesn't mean there are not still tons of college choices available to you.

The National Center for Fair and Open Testing facilitates the website Fair Test.  On their site you will find a list of colleges that are test optional schools.  Hopefully this will remind you that any one aspect of your college application will not make or break you - there are always more options to explore until you find the college that will be the best fit for you!
