If you choose to submit scores to Clark State, take your first SAT or ACT by spring of junior year, then use the summer before senior year and the fall for retakes and possible superscore gains. For the Anthony Munoz Scholarship Fund’s ACT 18+ requirement, an October ACT retake is a safe final fall test to have scores back well before the May 15 financial aid priority deadline.
