Details on ACT late registration?

Hi there! Momentary panic - I think I missed the normal registration for the ACT. It's not the end of the world, right? There's a late registration option, isn't it? Thank you for the help!

Absolutely, don't worry! While you may have missed the normal ACT registration deadline, there is indeed a late registration period. This period usually extends for about two weeks after the regular registration deadline. However, you'll need to keep several things in mind.

First, you'll have to pay a late registration fee in addition to the standard test fee. This can increase the overall cost, so it's something to think about if you're planning to register late.

Second, please be aware that during the late registration period, ACT testing centers may fill up quickly. So you'll want to register as soon as you can once the late registration period begins to ensure you secure a spot at a testing center that's convenient for you.

Finally, after the late registration period closes, you won't be able to register for that particular ACT test date. You'll need to look at the upcoming ACT test dates and plan accordingly.

To avoid missing future deadlines, try setting reminders on your calendar for the regular registration dates, which are typically about five weeks before each test date. Doing so will ensure you have plenty of time to register, and help you avoid additional fees.

I hope this helps clarify the ACT registration process for you! Good luck with your test.
