Test-Takers in 8th Grade and Below
Helping younger students take SAT Subject Tests
Anyone may take SAT Subject Tests, regardless of age. Some restrictions do apply, however, to students in 8th grade and below.
No permanent scores unless requested
If a student tests in the 8th grade or below, his or her scores are purged at the end of the testing year. Students can ask to preserve their scores as part of their permanent record if they choose. Tell them to submit a request in writing:
- Before the end of June of the year in which they tested
- Including full name, registration number, and test date
- Addressed to:
The College Board SAT Program

Test-takers in 8th grade or below
Students in 8th grade or below are not required to provide their photo during the registration and should not do so.
Due to Internet privacy laws, students younger than 13 years of age cannot register online. Give them The Paper Registration Guide for the SAT and SAT Subject Tests so they can complete the paper Registration Form.
