Registering for the Tests
Online, mail, and phone registration resources
Students must register for SAT Subject Tests in advance to ensure that the correct materials are waiting for them at the test center on test day. Once registered, each student receives:
- An assigned test center seat
- An Admission Ticket
- Up to four score reports sent to colleges and scholarship services
Registration is easy. Help your students choose the best registration method:
- Online registration is the fastest, most accurate way to register. It gives immediate confirmation of test-center seating and access to an online Admission Ticket for corrections and reprinting, if necessary.
- Mail registration is sometimes required. Students receive their Admission Ticket in the mail.
- Phone registration is offered for retaking the test. A fee applies. Only students who have a previous registration in the system can register by phone.
SAT® resources
The SAT Program offers numerous downloadable resources, including registration, dates, and fee waiver information, that will help you assist your students to register for the test. Many of these materials are sent to your school in late summer.
Fee waivers
With your help, the College Board grants fee waivers to more than 325,000 students every year, many of whom take SAT Subject Tests as well as the SAT Reasoning Test.
