SAT REASONING, ACT AND SAT SUBJECT TESTS
The SAT Reasoning or ACT + Writing are required by all 4-year colleges. These are basic entrance exams.
The SAT Subject Tests (two tests in specific subject areas of the student’s choice) are no longer required by UC’s but some private colleges and some majors at public colleges may still require them.
In the past, Seniors were directed to take their tests no later than December, however this year some schools are requiring students to take them by November. Most campuses accept either test (SAT or ACT). Seniors can register online for SAT at http://sat.collegeboard.org/home and for ACT at http://actstudent.org/. Yerba Buena high school code 053113 is needed to register. Fee Waivers for low income students are available from the Counseling Office in room 110. Fee waivers may not be used for late registration.
