When Do SAT Scores Come Out? (Score Release Schedule)

Track score release dates and time windows.

Direct Answer

Digital SAT scores are released 13 days after your test date on the second Friday following your exam. Scores are published in two daily batches: the first batch arrives at 8:00 AM ET (5:00 AM PT) and the second batch arrives by 6:00 PM ET (3:00 PM PT).

You will receive an email notification from College Board once your score report is accessible. You can view your score report by logging into your online College Board account.

Key Takeaways & Pro Tips

If your score is not available at 8:00 AM ET, check back after 6:00 PM ET as scores roll out in batches throughout the day.

School Day SAT administrations take roughly 3 to 4 weeks for score reporting.
