How to register for tests

• It is recommended that you register on-line at http://www.act.org for ACT or http://collegeboard.com for SAT: Reasoning Test or SAT: Subject Tests.
• Practice booklets are available in the CCRC.
• Students requesting accommodations on the ACT/SAT must complete a special registration form available in the Special Ed Department, as well as, the general registration form.
• Non-standardized testing requires documentation
• ACT/SAT must give permission to take non-standardized administrations including extended time, distraction-reduced environments, tests on tape, oral tests, or large print tests.
• Students may identify 3 colleges to receive their scores free of charge when they register.
• Many students wait to view their scores before releasing scores to colleges. Students electing not to release scores until a later date may incur an additional fee; however, this option allows students to see the test results before submitting the scores to colleges.
• Be sure to use the correct college codes listed for each college.
• ACT and SAT have different codes for the same colleges.
• Students are responsible registering for ACT/SAT.
• Note deadline dates.
• Registration forms must be postmarked by 5:00 p.m. on the last due date or submitted online prior to midnight.
