Entrance-and-Exit Exam Testing for IEP Students
If you have an IEP or 504 Plan and require accommodations for the SAT, ACT, or AP tests, please contact Jennifer Morgan. In your communication, include which test(s) you are requesting accommodations for along with the date(s) you plan to take the test. (Advanced Placement tests do not have set testing dates.) According to the College Board and ACT websites, you should allow eight weeks for the requested accommodations to be processed, so make your request 10–12 weeks before your testing date.
