Editor's notes
- The CDS rates the essay important but test scores only considered. If your ACT is below what your grades suggest, the essay pathway is a real alternative, and it's scored for scholarships too.
- Scholarships lock after December of senior year. If you're testing again, get the score to Drury by then.
