Idaho SAT® School Day
The most widely used college entrance exam — the SAT — is being given for free to all public school High School Juniors in Idaho. Even better, the SAT is being offered during the regular school day at the students' own high schools on Wednesday, April 17.
Online registration for the April 17 SAT opens on February 1. Students can use The Official SAT Online Course™ to practice for free.
The SAT showcases students' college and career readiness. The test provides a path to opportunities, financial support and scholarships, in a way that's fair to all students. The SAT keeps pace with what colleges are looking for today — measuring the skills required for success in the 21st century. Best of all, the SAT helps students find — and pay for — the right college that fits their needs.
