The SAT Suite of Assessments
SAT scores from the April 13th test administration will be available in your College Board account beginning on Wednesday, May 5, 2021. If you cannot view your score, please call the College Board's Student SAT Helpline at 1-866-756-7346.
Scores for some students will be released later than the expected date for reasons that include participation in the later accommodation testing window, participation on the make-up testing date, or other conditions that require additional attention.
The State of Illinois has chosen the SAT as the official college readiness assessment for all high schools. While students can still register and take the ACT on select Saturdays, we will be shifting our focus as a school to the required SAT. A majority of colleges nationwide and all schools within Illinois will accept the SAT as an admissions score. In addition, there are well-established conversion tables to help better understand SAT scoring (1600 Total Score) vs. ACT scoring (36 Total Score).
