Test Deadlines
SAT Reasoning Test or ACT Scores are required as part of the application for admission. Only one test score report is required as part of the application and no preference is given to the SAT or ACT. If more than one score report is submitted, the highest composite score (without regard to test date) will be considered by the admission committee. Linfield does not consider the writing portion of the SAT Reasoning Test or the ACT.
