ACT/SAT Information


Students who are planning to enter either a 4-year college or university or a 2-year community or junior college should plan to take a college entrance exam. It is recommended that most students take one of these tests for the first time in the spring of their junior year. All students planning to take a college entrance exam should plan to take the exam before the end of the first semester of their senior year. Students can take the exams as many times as they would like. Colleges will use the highest score to award acceptance or scholarship money.

The two college entrance exams that students have an opportunity to take are the ACT and the SAT. Students may choose either test to take or they may take both of them. Most schools will accept either test as an entrance exam; check with your particular university to make certain. More information about these exams can be obtained from visiting their websites at www.act.org (ACT) and www.collegeboard.com (SAT). Visit www.internet4classrooms.com/act_sat.htm for links to practice tests and test preparation information.

The state of Tennessee provides vouchers to pay for each student to take a college entrance exam one time only. In order to use a voucher to pay for the college entrance exam, the paper registration process must be completed rather than online registration. The student should see Mrs. Sadler, the Counseling Office secretary, to pick up a voucher. The student should then include the voucher in the registration materials when mailing the materials to the testing center.

 

Students will only be given ONE voucher; vouchers WILL NOT be replaced if lost.

Registration materials for both the ACT and the SAT are available in the Counseling Office. Students are responsible for filling out the materials and mailing them in on their own. Students may also register for the exams online by visiting the websites listed above.
