SAT Announcement
"Right now, public health officials have made it clear it is not safe to gather students in one place. Many states have closed school for the rest of the academic year, and globally there are widespread school closures across 192 countries. As such, we will not be able to administer the SAT and SAT Subject Tests as planned on June 6, 2020. Students will have opportunities to take the SAT to make up for this spring's lost administrations. If it's safe from a public health standpoint, we will provide weekend SAT administrations every month through the end of the calendar year, beginning in August. This includes a new administration in September and the previously scheduled tests on August 29, October 3, November 7, and December 5. Students will be able to register for these administrations beginning in May..." Please go to collegeboard.org for more information.
College Board has released the following announcement concerning the SAT:
