SAT Dates and Registration Information

Test Dates and Registration Deadlines

SAT Registration Tips

We strongly recommend completing your SAT registration as soon as you’re certain about the test date. That way you’ll have a better chance of getting your preferred testing center. Find more info and register here.

When choosing a test date, consider what other obligations your child will have around that time. For example, they may not want to take the test close to finals, vacation, or important extra-curricular events. You also want to make sure they have enough time to prep for the SAT!

The December test will be the final administration of the current version of the SAT. Beginning in March, the new digital SAT will be the only version offered. Learn more about the digital SAT here!

Accommodations

Talk with your child’s guidance counselor as early as possible about securing accommodations (such as extended time or or assistive technology). You’ll need to apply for accommodations before you complete the SAT registration. While you can request accommodations on your own, it’s much more efficient to have a school official submit your accommodations request and supporting documentation. Don’t wait until the last minute to take care of this since it can take up to seven weeks to be approved! The SAT website has pages of helpful info about accommodations.

Practice Tests

We offer several options for taking a practice SAT, including proctored tests. A practice test will give your child a look at the format and types of questions, as well as a feel for the timing. You don’t want the real SAT to be their first experience with this important exam!

After your child takes a practice test, we’ll provide you with a detailed score report and customized tutoring recommendations. Learn more here or give us a call!
