The College Board recently made it easier for students to obtain #SAT accommodations. Approvals will now be almost automatic for students who already receive and use accommodations at their school under an official plan and who submit the request through their school’s SSD (Services for Students with Disabilities) coordinator. The school coordinator only needs to answer yes to two questions: One: “Is the requested accommodation in the student’s plan?” And two: “Has the student used the accommodation for school testing?”
Students with a documented learning difference are eligible for extra time and other accommodations from both the College Board and the ACT. Approval from one organization does not guarantee approval from the other, however. Families should meet with their school’s accommodation coordinator to ensure that the required documentation is submitted in a timely manner.
