Prairie State College SAT Scores, ACT Scores, Acceptance Rate, and Admissions Requirements

If you choose to submit scores to test-optional Prairie State, take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year so you can use the summer before senior year and the fall of senior year for superscore-focused retakes. Since Prairie State does not offer Early Decision or Early Action, work backward from its Regular Decision deadline and use the last fall retake whose scores will arrive by that date. Do not plan your testing around the July 1 financial aid priority deadline, since it is not a score-submission cutoff.
