Important SAT News:

Are you taking the SAT this year? If so, then you need to be aware of some important modifications related to registration and test-day protocol. New security measures have been implemented that are designed to prevent test-taker impersonation. Beginning with the March 9 test date, you will be required to submit a photo when registering for the tests, that will then be made into a photo id which you must bring with you on test day. Another change is that standby (walk-in) testing is no longer permitted. For details on these and other changes, go to collegeboard.org and type "new SAT registration requirements" into the search box.
