Thousands of high school students across New Jersey who sat for the SATs at their schools in April are waiting with bated breath for their scores so they can apply to their college of choice. Some students may even get their scores today, May 1.
Students who opted out of taking the SAT on a weekend and instead chose an in-school date had several last-chance opportunities through April 30, when the testing window closed across New Jersey schools. The window for PSAT testing in schools for 8th, 9th and 10th graders also ended April 30.
Now that’s behind you, when will you get your scores from the College Board? What time are they released? And when is the next SAT testing date? Here’s everything you need to know in New Jersey.

When do colleges get SAT scores?
When you take the SATs, you can choose four colleges to send your scores to for free at the time you register or up to the time you take your test. Those schools will get your scores within 10 days of the online release of your complete score report. For reports you order more than nine days after you take the SAT, it can take one to two weeks to process before schools receive them.
Colleges typically get score reports on Wednesdays from the College Board. Want your scores sent within one to four business days? You can sign up for rush reporting.

Students can take the SATs on Saturday, June 7. The deadline to register is May 22. Those scores will be released on June 20.
