College Readiness

The College Board SAT School Day is a newly implemented initiative designed to make it easier (and more equitable) for students to take an official SAT. Instead of driving to a testing location on a Saturday morning to take the exam, students whose schools participate in SAT School Day will get to take the SAT at their own school during a time when they’d normally be in class. 

BHS SAT FALL TEST DAY - October 27, 2022

The exam will start in the AM and will last approximately 3 1/2 hours.

•  Students register for the SAT School Day exam by going to https://www.regismart.net/#/login. Here, students will:
  • CREATE ACCOUNT
  • Select Bothell High School
  • Register, and pay for the exam
  • Details of the registration, fee, cancellation policy, are listed on the RegiSmart website
• Students do not need to register for SAT School Day exam on the College Board website. However, if a student wants to take the SAT exam on a different date & location throughout the year (not hosted by BHS,) they must register for that exam on the College Board SAT website.

Testing Outside of Bothell High School

SAT exams are administered several times per year at locations outside of the Northshore School District.  Students will need to establish a College Board account before they can register for these tests.  It is important that the student registers with their own account, not a parent's account.  Creating an account takes about 30 minutes.  This is the same account that you will use if you are registering for an AP test.

With a College Board account, you can register for the SAT, and access/print your SAT Admission Ticket.  You can also access your SAT scores online, and send them to colleges.  Additionally, an account lets you manage your personal college list, save your scholarship searches, compare costs at colleges that interest you, and more.

As these tests fill up quickly, we recommend that if you want to test at a convenient location that you sign up for the SAT early.  Otherwise you might end up taking the test at a location further away.

Further information on the SAT can be found at www.sat.collegeboard.org

ACT exams are administered at different locations and are administered by ACT.org.  

Students will need an ACT account in order to register for these tests.

Further information about the ACT exam, including requirements, locations and how to register for the ACT, can be found at act.org.
