About the redesigned SAT:
Dalton State will accept the redesigned SAT beginning in summer 2016. Redesigned scores will be converted to old scores for admission evaluation purposes. The two-digit Reading test score will be used to create a Critical Reading score, and the Math section score will be used to create a Math score. Concordance information can be found via College Board.
SAT = Critical Reading 19, Math 360
ACT = English 14, Math 12
