Summer Test Dates Planned for the SAT and ACT

New SAT and ACT Test Dates

College Board is adding a late August test date to its calendar of tests this year — 2017, but removing the late January test next year.  That will mean seven possible SAT dates: March, May, June, August, October, November, December.   CLICK HERE FOR THE SAT CALENDAR.

ACT has announced that it will add a summer test date for July 14 (tentative) 2018. Currently there are no plans to eliminate a test date, so there will now be seven ACT dates available: February, April, June, July, September, October, December.  CLICK HERE FOR THE ACT CALENDAR.

Not sure whether to prepare for the SAT or ACT?

Come take a 3-hour diagnostic ACT at Inspiring free of charge.  Pick a date that works for you and schedule a free consultation later in the week to discuss the test results and Inspiring’s programs for score improvement.  Don’t see a test date — email Kate at kvs@katedalby.com to request a time.  Seats available most Saturdays and Sundays at 11:00.
