Other SAT Exam Opportunities

SAT exams are also administered several times per year at other locations outside of the Northshore School District (usually on a Saturday).  Students will need to establish a College Board account before they can register for these tests administered at other sites. When registering through College Board it is important the student registers with their own account, not a parent's account. Creating an account takes about 30 minutes. This is the same account you will use if you are registering for an AP test.

These tests fill up quickly so we recommend that if you want to test at a convenient location that you sign up for the SAT early. Otherwise, you might end up taking the test at a location farther away. Registration and further information about the SAT can be found at www.sat.collegeboard.org. Or by contacting your student's counselor.


SAT Testing Resources

In addition to a students GPA, course selections, and involvement in extracurricular activities, 4-year colleges and universities typically take a solid look at how students do on either the SAT or ACT when making admission decisions. In light of COVID-19, students nationwide are facing the same obstacles regarding SAT and/or ACT test cancellations and alternate testing availability. We want to highlight the following:

  • College admissions offices see this, understand this, and are adjusting accordingly by evaluating admissions requirements using a holistic review process. 
  • Remember to consult the Admissions websites of the colleges you are considering for up-to-date admissions requirements.

If you are able to and/or choose to register for an ACT or SAT test, you will need the Woodinville High School CEEB Code: 481598.

State Graduation ELA/Math Pathway

When meeting the score requirement, the SAT or ACT also can also be used to meet the ELA and/or Math state graduation requirement. Reach out to your counselor for details!


TEST-OPTIONAL MEANS TEST-OPTIONAL


Per NACAC (National Association for College Admission Counseling), the COVID-19 pandemic has created uncertainty among students and families about nearly all aspects of the college admission process, including the role of standardized testing. 

Due to previous cancellations of SAT and ACT testing dates, more than 1,450 US colleges and universities announced they are moving to a test-optional policy, and more will surely follow.
