Hey, I procrastinated on registering for the SAT and now my desired test date is fast approaching. Is there any way to register for the SAT after the regular deadline? If so, what are the details about late registration? Thanks, I’m stressing out a bit.
Hey! Don't worry, you're not alone in this situation. Late registration for the SAT is definitely an option. For domestic U.S. test-takers, there is usually a late registration deadline that extends for two weeks beyond the regular deadline. For international test-takers, the late registration deadline is a week later than the regular registration deadline. You'll need to check the College Board website for specific deadlines and test dates.
There are a few things to keep in mind with late registration. First, there is an additional late fee you will need to pay, which is $30 for domestic test-takers and $53 for international test-takers as of the last time I checked. Second, it's important to register as early as possible during the late registration period because test centers might fill up. The closer you get to the test date, the fewer test centers might be available.
One more piece of advice: sign up for a College Board account and stay informed about any changes or updates to SAT registration. Best of luck!
