Due to some unforeseen circumstances, I won't be able to take my SAT. Is there any way I can get a refund? If yes, how do I go about it? Thanks in advance.
I'm sorry to hear that you won't be able to take the SAT as planned. Regarding refunds, the College Board has a specific policy. While you cannot get a full refund, you may be able to get a partial refund.
Here's how it works:
If you cancel your SAT registration by 11:59 p.m. on the Tuesday before your test date, you can receive a refund of $25. This is the amount returned to you regardless of the cause of cancellation. Unfortunately, all other fees are non-refundable, which means you won't be able to get back the $68 registration fee.
To cancel your registration and request a refund, you'll need to call College Board Customer Service and they will guide you through the entire process. Their customer service hours are 8 a.m.–9 p.m. ET, Monday–Friday.
Remember, the deadline is very strict, so make sure to make the call as early as possible so you don't miss out on your partial refund.
I hope this helps, and please let me know if you have any other questions.
