College Entrance Exams
Your son/daughter may be interested in going to college upon graduation from Georgia Youth ChalleNGe Academy. One of the requirements for admission to many colleges is that the prospective student submits scores from either the SAT or ACT test. While at Youth ChalleNGe Academy, your cadet will be given an opportunity to take both tests.
The SAT will be given on June 5, 2010. The fee for this test is $45.00 and must be submitted by May 5, 2010 for the June test. Registration fees submitted after this date but before May 25, 2010 will require a late registration fee of $23.00. After June 1, 2010, cadets wishing to take this test will be required to register as a stand-by tester at a fee of $83.00.
If you wish to register your cadet for this test, you may mail your payment to the address below in care of Melany Wayne, or pay on Family Day. Checks or money orders should be made to the order of “The College Board”. Students will complete their paper registration forms after money has been received at the Academy. You may also pay by credit card online at www.collegeboard.com. In order to register online, you will need the school code 111-329, and the test center code 11-231.
The ACT will be given on June 12, 2010. The fee for this test is $32.00 and must be submitted before May 6, 2010 for the June 12, 2010 test. Registration fees received between 7 - 20 May, 2010 for the June test will require a late fee of $20.00. Cadets registering after June 1 2010 will be required to test on a stand by basis at a fee of $71.00. You may also mail this payment to the address above or pay on Family Day. Please make checks payable to “ACT”.
