College Board: PSAT, SAT, AP & Subject Tests

Contact your Learning Support Testing and Assistant Technology Coordinator, Dawn Abbott with your desired test dates. Documentation of a disability that directly impacts performance on College Board tests is needed. Accommodations can be approved for individual subject areas or the entire test. Approval may take up to 7 weeks. Once accommodations are approved they automatically apply to all future College Board tests.

To Request Accommodations SAAS School Code: 481-154

Provide Dawn Abbott with the required documentation with a parent and student signed authorization form.
SAAS submits the accommodations request.
If accommodations are approved the family will receive an eligibility letter that contains test-by-test details of what is/is not approved and an SSD Number. If they are denied there is a detailed reason.
Families use the SSD Number from the eligibility letter to register for a preferred test date. When registering you must always use the SSD Number to link the accommodations to the test.

3. Educational, developmental, and medical history is presented.
4. The diagnosis is supported.
5. The functional limitation is described.

Things to Remember

Once accommodations are approved, they apply to all College Board tests moving forward (PSAT, AP, SAT, and Subject Tests).
In most cases, it is better to wait on requesting accommodations until the correct accommodations have been decided as it is hard to change accommodations once they are approved.
Check your Admission Ticket for Test Center location. Students that are approved to test at SAAS for the SAT with essay may be registered at a National Test center for Subject tests or SAT without essay because they don’t need a computer.
Students testing at SAAS will have a note that says “See Below” listed next to Test Center and a note that says “School Based” under the Message to Coordinators section.
