Do you have to take the SAT’s over again as a transfer student?

It’s been almost 8 years since I took the SAT exam. I took some college courses but now I want to really pursue my degree at a state college. To get accepted as a transfer student, will they use my SAT scores for admission or does it not apply?

No, so long as you have enough credits to be considered a transfer student, rather than a freshman, they won’t even look at your SATs or your high school GPA. They’ll look at your college coursework, and admit you based on that.

If, however, you don’t have enough credits – well, then they may ask for your SAT scores and (gasp) high school transcripts.

If you are not considered a transfer student:

From the universities I’m familiar with, none of them say that SAT scores expire. I think you’re okay. But check the websites of the schools you’re interested in, because if they have an “expiration date” for SAT scores, they’ll say it right on their admissions pages.

The College Board is the company you need to contact to have your SAT scores sent to schools. They have a website. For scores as old as yours, it can take a bit of extra time to have them sent, so plan that in.

No, normally you do not have to take the exam again, unless your score is not high enough for the college in which you plan to attend. Sometimes it is taken again to increase the score.

No, SATs and intense college stuff is irrelevant while utilising to UCs. the only way it concerns is that in case you do not have 60 contraptions and have not met the IGETC standards (you have no longer finished your accepted ed)

No, once you have taken it, you have taken it. Your scores should be on your transcripts from the college you attended previously. Congrats for getting going on your degree! Good Luck!
