Students registered for the December 3 SAT test must remember to read the registration guide and come prepared for the test. You must bring a valid ID with picture that matches the name on your admission ticket. Be sure to read what you are allowed to bring (type of pencils, authorized calculator, etc.) and leave behind what you are not allowed to bring to your desk.
Students who wanted to take the December 3 SAT test, but who did not register on time, can register as "stand-by". You will be charged late fees and you cannot register online. Read the information online about "stand-by" testing. To get a registration form, see Nicole Anne Daigle in room 254 (library).

Canadian students are considered to be international students. Students planning to take both the SAT and SAT Subject tests must do so on two separate testing days. Although St. Lawrence is an authorized testing center, you must register online at http://sat.collegeboard.org and pay your testing fees to the College Board. Study materials are available at your library. You may also use free online practice tools or order additional practice material. The registration booklets, as well as the preparation booklets, are available in the Counselling Office, room 254.
