SAT Changes
1- Students will be prompted to provide a photograph during SAT registration. This photo will
appear on the Admission Ticket.
2- An Admission Ticket will be required for entry to the test center. This is in addition to the existing
requirement that students present an acceptable form of photo ID.
3- Students’ gender and date of birth will appear on your test day roster and on the Admission Ticket.
This will provide additional data points for matching students’ IDs with their registration
information.
4- Changes to test center, test date or test type (SAT to SAT Subject Tests™ or vice-versa) will not be
allowed on test day. Students who wish to make registration changes must do so by the published late
registration deadline for the desired test date.
5- Standby testing will not be available. If students miss the last registration deadline for a particular
test date, they may have the option to request Waitlist Status through their online accounts.
Waitlisted students will be on your test-day roster and will have a specially marked Waitlist Ticket.
Waitlist students can be admitted if staffing, space and materials allow. All students allowed entry to
the test center must present either an Admission Ticket or a Waitlist Ticket. New or changed
registrations cannot be accepted at the test center on test day.
