If a student currently has an IEP or 504 Plan with testing accommodations, there is an additional separate application process for requesting accommodations for both the College Board (SAT, AP, PSAT) exams and the ACT exam. College Board and ACT will review the request and then approve/deny accommodations for their respective test(s). A current IEP or 504 Plan does not guarantee approval of accommodations for these third-party exams. The final decision is up to College Board and ACT. Parents of students with a 504 plan or IEP should check the email sent on Monday, 11/4, for deadlines.
