If you choose to submit scores to test-optional Wabash Valley, take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year and use the summer before senior year plus the fall for retakes that may improve a superscore. Wabash Valley does not offer Early Decision or Early Action, so check the regular admission deadline before choosing your last fall retake; the June 1 financial aid priority deadline does not require a testing timeline.
