Testing Accommodations
Any students on 504s or IEPs who plan to test for the SATs or SAT subject tests:
If any student would like to request testing with accommodations on our campus, they need to inform their counselors well in advanced to request these accommodations on these tests from the College Board, and then sign up for one of these tests dates if they plan to test using School Based Accommodations. If you are planning to test with accommodations on any tests, please inform your counselor well in advanced of the test so that proctors can be secured for your test administration.

During the Test
You will be allowed to have only these items on your desk:
- A test book
- An answer sheet
- No. 2 pencils with erasers
- An approved calculator—during one of the math sections only
Turn Off All Electronic Devices
You’ll need to turn off all electronic devices during the test and even during breaks. This includes cellphones. Be sure to turn off your watch alarm, if you have one.
Why? Test centers are serious about security and quiet, so prohibited devices—which include cellphones, tablets, and MP3 players—must be turned off and put under your desk. Better yet: Leave them at home.
Important:
Really, Really Important
You will be dismissed immediately and your scores will be canceled if you use your phone or if it makes a noise—even during breaks. Your phone may also be confiscated and inspected.
