Juniors and Seniors – you absolutely need to check each college’s admissions requirements.  Many schools will not accept your  application if you haven’t taken the specified SAT Subject Tests and/or the ACT Writing test.

There have already been a couple for applications rejected because these specific requirements weren’t completed.

I am administering the SAT and SAT Subject tests on January 26 and the ACT with Writing on February 9 here at Steller.  There is still time to sign up for one or both of them.
