STUDENTS MUST UPLOAD A PHOTO WITH THEIR ACT REGISTRATION. I CAN HELP WITH THIS IF YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO DO IT AT HOME.
The ACT is an important entrance exam for students who are planning to attend a post-secondary school (either 2-year or 4-year). Most community colleges accept all students, but base some of their scholarship money on ACT test scores. Any senior who has not taken the ACT needs to do so as soon as they possibly can so that they can have a score for college applications. Juniors need to start looking at taking the ACT for the first time so they have an idea of what to expect and can retake it if they feel it is necessary later. Juniors who are planning to take College Algebra in the spring can either get into the class based on their grade/GPA or they will need to take the ACT so they can meet the required score to be admitted into the class for college credit. Seniors planning to take College Comp I and College Comp II their senior year can also get in based on their grade/GPA or they will need to have taken the ACT and gotten at least an 18 on the English section. Otherwise, they will also have to try to take the ACCUPLACER test.
The ACT is given nationally on specific dates (see table below). Please make sure you are aware of the deadlines and get register online at www.actstudent.org or you can come in and I will help you register. There are two test options, the ACT only or the ACT Plus Writing. The writing section is in addition the the ACT test and will help students if they are planning to apply at a 4-year university or an out-of-state college. If you are not sure if the college you are interested in requires the writing section, check the college web site, or ask me and I can look it up for you. The fee for the ACT only is $60.00 this year. If students participate in the free or reduced lunch program, they can use a fee waiver up to 2 times to pay for the ACT test. Otherwise, students will have to pay at the time of registration. If you need help registering, please call me for assistance.
