SAT scores typically come out about 2–3 weeks after you take the test, with some variation depending on whether you tested on a weekend or a weekday. Here are the common patterns for 2025:
- SAT Weekend (most common): Scores are usually released about 10 business days after the test date, and all scores are often posted by around 8 PM Eastern Time on release day.
- SAT School Day (in-school testing): Scores are generally available roughly 2 weeks after the testing window ends, with access often starting in the evening of the release day.
Key notes:
- You can view your scores online through your College Board account.
- If you want to send scores to colleges, the College Board typically forwards them within about 10–12 days after your scores are released, though timing can vary slightly if you took the Essay (optional) or other components.
- If you took the test on a specific date, you can usually estimate your release window by looking up the official release dates for that administration cycle, then add the 13–14 days after the test as a rough rule of thumb.
If you’d like, I can look up the exact release dates for your specific test date(s) this year and give you a precise window.
