PSAT/SAT and ACT

The SAT and ACT are considered college entrance exams. The PSAT/SAT are managed by the College Board and the Pre-ACT/ACT are managed by ACT.

The PSAT is a practice SAT and may be taken as early as 10^th grade. Most students take the PSAT and SAT as a junior in high school. Students who wish to take the SAT sign up based on the College Board schedule.

North Carolina currently requires every high school student to take the Pre-ACT and ACT and NC pays for the test one time. The Pre-ACT is given to 10^th grade students, usually in the fall. Students take the ACT during the spring of their junior year (usually late February, early March). 

If your child plans to go straight to a four-year university, they will most likely need to take the SAT or ACT (may be different with pandemic). Each college or university has their own required test for admission. Please check the colleges in which your child is interested to find which test they require. If you have questions about the PSAT/SAT, please check out the College Board website. For questions about the ACT, check out ACT.org.

Students w/IEPs: Testing Accommodations for College Entrance Exams

Students who need testing accommodations need prior approval for the PSAT, SAT, and ACT. The school will normally send a letter to parents of students who have testing accommodations for the PSAT during the summer before their 10^th grade year. If you receive this letter and want your student to have their testing accommodations, please follow the instructions in the letter. If approved by the College Board, students will receive their accommodations for both the PSAT and the SAT. During students’ junior year of high school, the school will submit the request for approval of testing accommodations prior to the ACT.

You will get notification of approval for the PSAT, SAT, and/or the ACT in the mail. If the request has not been approved, please contact your child's counselor in Student Support Services (S3) so we can communicate with each test administrator about what documentation they may still need. If at first the request is not approved, don’t panic. This often happens, and we usually see a reversal after we provide additional documentation.

If you do not receive a letter from the school about accommodations permissions, please contact your child's counselor in Student Support Services (S3).
