ACT Testing

The ACT is a test taken prior to applying for college. The test evaluates your skill level in science, math, English and reading. These scores are sent to a college, along with your application. Almost all four year universities require either SAT or ACT scores. Students are encouraged to take either the SAT or ACT in the winter or spring of their Junior year. This gives you the option to retake the test if you are not happy with your scores.

Am I eligible for a fee waiver?
If you are testing on a national test date and can't afford the registration fee for the ACT or ACT with writing, you may be eligible for an ACT Fee Waiver. Information about the eligibility requirements and how to request a fee waiver is sent each summer to high schools.  You should work with your local high school to determine your eligibility.
You must meet all of the following requirements:
  1. Currently enrolled in high school in the 11th or 12th grade.
  2. Either a United States citizen or testing in the US, US territories, or Puerto Rico.
  3. Meet one or more indicators of economic need listed on the ACT Fee Waiver form.
If you are eligible, you may use a maximum of two separate fee waivers total. The waiver is used once you register, even if you do not test on the requested test date.

IMPORTANT: To take full advantage of the waiver, you must follow through and test on your registered test date.
Fee waivers cover only the basic registration fee for your test option on a national test date, including up to four college choices (if you provide valid codes when you register). Waivers do not cover the late registration fee, test date or test center changes, standby fee, additional score reports, or any other services.
You cannot request a fee waiver directly from ACT; you must contact your high school counselor. If you receive an ACT Fee Waiver Form, follow the "Student Directions" on it for your registration method (or if requesting Special Testing).
Note: If you register online, and register during the late period or request any additional services, you must enter a credit card to pay those fees before submitting your registration.
