Hey folks, I'm a bit on edge waiting for my ACT results. How long does it usually take for ACT scores to be released after taking the test? If anyone's gone through this recently and can give me a heads-up on what to expect, that’d be great!
Hello there! My child just went through the testing process not too long ago. Typically, ACT scores are released anywhere from 2 to 8 weeks after the test date. Sometimes we noticed that scores could come out in batches, so even if someone else gets their scores, yours might come a bit later, which is totally normal.
The waiting can definitely be tough, but try to keep busy with other things during this period. If it’s been more than 8 weeks and you still haven’t seen your scores, it might be worth reaching out to ACT directly to inquire about the delay. Hopefully, you’ll get your results soon and they’ll be worth the wait! Best of luck!
