College Board will email you if your test centre has been closed. You can also contact the test centre directly and know whether they are open or not. In case the SAT exam centre is closed, the applicant may have to alter his/her selected centre and choose another one. This option is open for a free switch before the applications for SAT exam are submitted. Once the SAT exam form is submitted, the exam centre change will require fee of USD 25 for a change.

After choosing the SAT exam date, it'll take at least 6-12 weeks to prepare for the SAT exam depending on the applicant's previous knowledge also. Thus, SAT preparation time can vary from individual to individual. But the key to crack the SAT exam is ample practice of mock tests. Make sure you have enough time so you have the SAT score with you at the time of the application process at the foreign university as well so that they have their scores while applying.

Changing your SAT 2026 date requires paying a fee. If you want to cancel your current test, pay a cancellation fee. Then register and pay for new date separately. Students with fee waivers can make these changes for free.

While registering for SAT exam students are permitted to choose only one SAT exam date. There is no option of making multiple selections for SAT exam dates on College Board. Students ideally should prepare themselves and ensure that they apply for the SAT date only when they are able to sit for the exam and score as per their expectations. Thus, making changes to SAT dates is possible but multiple selections are not. Applicants should thus, make up their minds before hand and then make the final choice because altering choices can be costly for them at a later stage.

Yes, SAT exam dates are predetermined by College Board, thus, when applicants are applying for SAT exam they can see only two or three test dates. Out of these two or three test dates, applicants have to choose any one of the test dates. The SAT dates are official on the website while registering and are not subject to change.

Plus alternative options will also be provid
