When do PSAT scores come out?
Fall 2026 PSAT/NMSQT scores come out on October 22, November 5 or November 12, 2026, depending on when your school submits its students' answers. Ask your counselor which date applies to your school. You then see your scores in the BigFuture School app or in your College Board student account.
In more detail
The date depends on your school, not on the day you tested. For fall 2026 in-school testing, College Board releases scores in three waves, and the wave is set by when the school submits answers. The fall testing window runs from October 1 to 30, 2026. Educators see scores in the K-12 score reporting portal two days before students do.
To see your report, use the BigFuture School app. If you gave a mobile number on test day, you get a text with instructions to download it and another text when your scores are ready. If you did not, sign in with your test registration number or ask your school or counselor for a copy. Students 13 and older can also use a personal College Board student account to view more insights online.
Spring in-school tests such as the PSAT 10 follow the same pattern, with four release dates in spring 2027. If your school gives the PSAT as part of a state testing program, check with your state for when scores are available. College Board's release table lists dates, not a time of day.
PSAT score release dates, fall 2026
| Your school submits answers by | Scores in the K-12 portal (educators) | Scores for students |
|---|---|---|
| October 9, 2026 | October 20, 2026 | October 22, 2026 |
| October 23, 2026 | November 3, 2026 | November 5, 2026 |
| October 30, 2026 | November 10, 2026 | November 12, 2026 |

More questions
What time do PSAT scores come out?
College Board's release table lists dates, not hours. Check the BigFuture School app or your student account through the day, and watch for the text message if you gave a mobile number on test day.
Can I see my PSAT score before the release date?
Not through College Board's normal process. Scores open to students on the dates in its table, and your date depends on when your school submits answers. Ask your counselor which date applies to you.
