Hey there! I was just looking into sending my ACT scores to colleges. Does anyone know how much it costs to send them? Are there any fee waivers available for that? Thanks!
Hey! Sending your ACT scores to colleges does come with a fee. If you want to send your scores to a college during the registration process, you may list up to four colleges as recipients at no additional charge. However, if you decide to send your scores after the registration and test dates have passed, the cost is $18.50 per recipient.
Regarding fee waivers, if you took the ACT using a fee waiver, you are eligible for up to six college choices to send your scores for free. This benefit is available only to students who test under an ACT Fee Waiver and must be used during the valid fee waiver period, which is from the time you register until the deadline.
To make use of the free college codes, during registration, you can add additional reporting at that time, or you can do it later by accessing your ACT account, as long as it is within the deadline. These six college choices are in addition to the four colleges you may have already selected during registration. So, in total, you can send your scores to up to ten colleges for free if you used an ACT fee waiver.
I hope this information helps! Good luck with your college applications!
