Spring College Admissions Tests

I hope that all of my junior students have registered to take at least one of the college admissions tests (ACT or SAT) this spring. If you haven't signed up for one of the tests yet, it isn't too late, but the deadlines are Friday so it is important to register now!

The remaining test dates for this spring are:

SAT - June 7, 2014

Registration Deadline: Friday, May 9th
Late Registration Deadline: May 28th
Register online at http://www.collegeboard.org/

ACT - June 14, 2014

Registration Deadline: Friday, May 9th
Late Registration Deadline: May 23rd
Register online at http://www.actstudent.org/
(Don't forget to sign up for the ACT plus Writing!)

To answer some of the more frequent questions I have had lately about the test dates:

- Yes, I know that the tests are right after exams and school ending. Sorry, I can't control that for you.

-  Yes, I know that travel plans may conflict.  If you want to schedule the test for June you can either make arrangements to leave after the test or to arrive at your destination early and sign up to take the test in whatever city you will be visiting.

- Yes, there are test dates in the fall so that you can take or repeat a test at that time.

- No, there are not any dates over the summer.

- Yes, if you need to take the SAT II (Subject Tests) it is ideal to take those tests during the June test date. Double check with your individual colleges to see if they are going to require subject tests and, if so, in which particular subjects.

If you have any other questions about the ACT or SAT visit the "Testing" page on the WKHS Counselor website, the actual ACT and SAT websites, or stop in my office and see me.
