PSAT & SAT Registration is Open

PSAT & SAT School Day Exam Registration Information

Registration for SAT School Day and PSAT (for 10th graders only), click on THIS LINK to create an account and scroll to Bothell High School to register for either the SAT School Day exam or the PSAT (if they are a 10th grader). NOTE: all Juniors take the PSAT so they do not need to register as we do a bulk registration upload for all juniors.

Cost of PSAT is $20.00 and SAT is $60.00. Bothell students register for the BHS exam dates only (do not register to attend another school's exam). 

Other SAT Exam Opportunities

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

Registration and further information about the SAT can be found at www.sat.collegeboard.org. Or by contacting your student's counselor.

DATES TO NOTE:

  • PSAT at BHS: October 9, 10, 16 & 17 2024, 8am (More information coming soon)
  • SAT at BHS: Thursday, October 24, 2024, 8am

 

Choosing To Test

With quarantine and the move to online learning in 2020, and the cancellation of standardized tests, many colleges and universities rethought admissions criteria. As of Spring 2022, all of Washington's public universities are at least test optional - meaning SAT or ACT scores are not required for admission - and Washington's private, not for profit colleges are as well. Below is a video that discusses how to decide to test and which test to take.

For more detailed information about applications being test optional, please see Test Optional Information from Washington Student Achievement Council. 

For a list of out of state colleges/universities that are test optional please visit fairtest.org. 

If you do decide to take the SAT or ACT, Bothell's CEEB Code is 480100. You will need this number when registering for either test.
