  •  The SAT Subject Tests are not required, however, some majors do recommend students take these exams.  Please consult with your counselor for more information.

Students applying for admission to the fall term must take tests no later than December of their senior year, preferably earlier, to ensure that their application receives prompt and full consideration.  Paper applications are available in the Counseling Office or students may register online at www.collegeboard.com or www.actstudent.org.
