With all the uncertainties going on, I'm worried about potential SAT test center closures on my test day. Are there any resources for staying updated on which test centers are open or closed? And what should I do if my test center ends up being closed?
I understand that the current situation can make preparing for the SAT a bit stressful. To stay updated on test center closures, I recommend visiting the College Board's website, where they post information regarding any changes to test centers and test dates. Here's the link to their test center updates page: https://collegereadiness.collegeboard.org/sat/register/test-center-closings. Additionally, you can sign up for text (SMS) updates from the College Board to receive notifications about any potential changes to your test center.
In the event that your test center does close, the College Board will typically notify you via email, so make sure to keep a close eye on your inbox. If your test center is closed, you may be automatically reassigned to a different location or test date, depending on availability. If you're not happy with the new assignment, you can request a change through your College Board account at no extra charge. Alternatively, you may choose to get a refund and register for a future available test date.
Best of luck with your upcoming SAT test!
