* Emory considers your highest section scores across all SAT dates submitted. You will be instructed to send scores from every SAT test date on which you received a top score in each section: mathematics, critical reading and writing. Final admissions decisions are based only on your highest section scores, and Emory updates your records each time you receive new scores. You will be encouraged to submit scores each time you take the SAT because it will always benefit you to do so.
Home-schooled and international applicants: Please visit your respective sections in the website for details about how to apply.
