I was wondering as to how I can fill out my SAT scores on the scholarship application, as with my SAT scores, the reading and writing portions are one combined score, not two separate scores.
Hi Kaitlyn,
We will make a revision to the scholarship application to allow for this. I’ll let you know as soon as the change has been made. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. 🙂
