Official Test Scores
SAT code: 4693
ACT code: 0426

Request official scores from the College Board and/or ACT. Do NOT use the rush reporting service.

Scripps College requires that applicants submit all official SAT Reasoning and/or ACT scores. We do not require the writing section of either test. 

If you have taken the SAT or ACT more than once, we will consider your best score. Best SAT score is determined by combining the highest score received on each section from any combination of testing dates; note that we will not combine subscores from the new and old versions of the SAT. Best ACT score is determined by the single testing date with the highest composite score. 

International students for whom English is not their first language must also submit either the TOEFL or IELTS.

Official Transcripts

If official transcripts were submitted for the QB College Match review, it is not necessary to resubmit them for Scripps’ consideration. If official transcripts were not submitted, please send your official transcripts directly to Scripps (see Contact Information below).
