How do I sign up for these tests?

If you’re currently incarcerated:

    The SAT has no established procedure for allowing people who are incarcerated to take the test. You should check with your facility’s Education Department to see if you can arrange to take the SAT.[2873] On the other hand, the ACT specifically allows people who are incarcerated to register for and take the test. This is called “arranged testing.” To ask for arranged testing, you will need to get and submit ACT’s “Request for Arranged Testing” form. You can get a copy of this form by calling the ACT Arranged Testing Line at 319-337-1510 or by writing to: ACT Arranged Testing, 301 ACT Drive, P.O. Box 168, Iowa City, IA 52243-0168.
    This form is also available online at http://www.actstudent.org/faq/confined.html (if you have someone who can download it for you).[2874]

If you’re formerly incarcerated:

    SAT—You can register online at http://sat.collegeboard.org/register/.[2875] You can also request a paper registration form by writing to: College Board SAT Program P.O. Box 025505 Miami, FL 33102, or by calling (866) 756-7346.[2876]
    ACT—You can register online at http://www.actstudent.org/regist/,[2877] You can also request a Register-By-Mail packet by writing to: ACT Student Services, 2727 Scott Blvd., minizip 46, P.O. Box 414, Iowa City, IA 52243-0414 or by calling (319) 337-1270 (See Appendix C, PG. 893, for more details on ACT policies.).
