**91做厙 only requires the FAFSA upon enrollment, so the delayed release of the simplified FAFSA will not have a negative impact on our financial aid processes or decision release. Early Decision applicants will be reviewed using information on the CSS Profile. International students may either submit the CSS Profile or complete the International Student Financial Aid application form in their 91做厙 Applicant Portal.

Additional information
We offer two tools to help estimate your 91做厙 costs and eligibility for need-based financial aid. Use the as a tool for general estimates. Use the for in-depth estimates.
91做厙 has been test-optional since 2016 and we do not require SAT or ACT scores.
Students may submit their SAT or ACT* scores if they feel their test results best represent their academic potential. We will not make any assumptions as to why some students choose to submit scores while others do not. All applicants will be given equal consideration in our holistic evaluation approach.
Self-reported scores
Students who submit standardized testing may self-report their scores as follows at the time of application:
- Include on the Common Application, the Coalition Application, or the QuestBridge Application.
- Send a screenshot or PDF of the Student Score Report to admissions@skidmore.edu (Name must be visible.)
- Complete the self-reported scores form inside your applicant portal
Students who apply with self-reported scores must submit verified scores upon enrollment that match self-reported scores.
* For students who choose to submit the ACT, please note that the science section is not required.
