Hey everyone, so I took the ACT last year and now I need to find my results for college applications. Could someone guide me? Where are ACT scores located, and what do I need to retrieve them?
You can find your ACT scores on the ACT's official website. Here's a quick step-by-step guide:
1. Visit the ACT's official website and click on the "Sign In" button on the top right of the page.
2. If you have an ACT account, login using your username and password. If you've forgotten your login credentials, there are prompts that will guide you to recover your username or password. If you don't have an account, you'll need to create one using the ACT ID from your registration or ticket, which was provided at the time when you registered for the exam.
3. Once you're logged in, you'll find a section called "Your Test Dates and Scores." Here you'll see a list of all the ACT tests you've taken.
4. Click on the specific date for which you want to view the scores.
5. You should then see your composite score, as well as your individual section scores.
Remember that it typically takes about 10 days after the test date for scores to be posted online, but it can sometimes take longer, up to eight weeks for students who tested with accommodations. If your scores aren't showing up and it's been more than eight weeks since your test date, you might want to contact ACT Customer Care for assistance.
