SAT School Day allows states, districts, and schools to offer juniors and seniors the opportunity to take the SAT during their regular school day at their home school, expanding access to a globally recognized college admission test.
Support Equity
When students have the opportunity to test at their own school, they’re more likely to take the test. By providing a college admission test in school, you’re cultivating a college-going culture for the entire school.
Expand Access
Students don’t have to juggle weekend responsibilities or find transportation. Income-eligible 11th- and 12th-grade students also receive SAT fee waivers, unlimited free SAT score sends, and college application fee waivers, so they can take the SAT and apply to college—for free.
Flexible and Easy to Order
SAT School Day allows schools to order any number of tests—with or without a contract.The entire SAT Suite of Assessments is available to order online, all in one place, with multiple test day options for each assessment.
