ACT scores for the 2024-2025 period are typically released on a rolling basis, with scores becoming available starting about 10 days after the test date and up to around 8 weeks later. The scores are generally posted around midnight Central Time on release dates. Each test date has a window during which scores are expected to be released. Here are some specific examples of the ACT test dates and their estimated score release windows for 2025:

ACT Test Date| Score Release Date Window
---|---
September 14, 2024| September 24 – November 3, 2024
October 26, 2024| November 5 – December 15, 2024
December 14, 2024| December 19, 2024 – February 2, 2025
February 8, 2025| February 18 – April 4, 2025
April 5, 2025| April 15 – May 30, 2025
June 14, 2025| June 24 – August 8, 2025
July 12, 2025| July 22 – September 5, 2025

Usually, multiple-choice scores come out first, and if the test includes writing, those scores arrive about two weeks later. The release times are around midnight Central Time, so East Coast students may see their scores at about 1 AM local time. If scores are not available immediately within the release window, it is not necessarily a problem as delays can occur. If the wait extends beyond a few weeks, contacting ACT might be advisable. In summary, expect ACT scores approximately 10 days to 8 weeks post-test date, with scores accessible online via the "My ACT" account.
