Standardized Testing Information (ACT/SAT)
-
Students planning on applying to a four-year college should plan to take either the SAT or ACT at least twice. Students tend to do better on one test than the other, so we recommend taking both and then taking the one on which you scored higher at least one more time. Scores tend to increase the second time.

**Students who receive free or reduced lunch or who qualify for other federally determined financial requirements may receive fee waivers to take each test two times free of charge. See your Counselor for more information**
