Already accepted, send in new test scores?

Hi! I have just been accepted into a university with my first round of ACT and SAT scores. I took both tests again and improved, is there any reason I should send in my new scores to that university?

    possible reasons to send in better scores

    - your first scores were low enough that they might require you to take remedial courses, which you can now skip and not bother with

    - your first scores were so high that even better ones might qualify you for grants or scholarships

    - you like the school you chose and want to improve their stats

    if none of those is the case, no reason to bother and either way congrats :)

    Nope, acceptance is the goal, would you send in your scores if they were worse?

    edit: although you can sometimes get extra course credits for higher ACT scores
