How do I register for the SAT?
You can register for upcoming test dates on College Board’s website. Testing sites can fill up early, so it’s best to plan ahead and register as soon as possible.
Recently, the lack of available testing sites seems to be a problem in California in particular. We’ve heard from several families in California who have been unable to find a seat at a local testing center and have had to travel several hours to the nearest available site.
You can take the SAT multiple times. We recommend planning on testing at least twice.
How much does it cost to take the SAT?
Standard registration for the SAT costs $68.
Late registration costs $102 ($68 standard registration fee + $34 late registration fee).
For international students, there is also a $43 international fee.
There are additional fees for changing your test center or canceling your registration. Please visit College Board for a complete list of fees.
Students with financial need may apply for a fee waiver, which includes registration for two SAT dates, unlimited score reports, and waived application fees at participating colleges. Students with fee waivers are not subject to late registration or cancellation fees.
If you have an SAT fee waiver, you are eligible for Test Innovators’ SAT and ACT Practice Scholarship, which gives 1 year of full access to our SAT and ACT practice materials. Learn more and apply here.
What if I cannot take the test on a Saturday?
If you are unable to take the SAT on a Saturday for religious reasons, you can request a Sunday test date. Sunday testing typically occurs the day after the standard Saturday dates (unless that Sunday happens to be a religious holiday). For more information on requesting a Sunday testing please visit College Board’s website.
