The 2016-2017 School Day SAT for all juniors will be on Tuesday, April 11th, 2017!!!

​The SAT, ACT, or Compass college entrance or placement examination must be taken by all public school students before the end of the student's eleventh grade year. 
​
To aid Idaho students in this requirement, the Idaho State Department of Education, with funding appropriated by the Idaho State Legislature, has contracted with the College Board to fund a statewide SAT administration, at each Idaho public high school, on a school day each spring. ​

Because the funding for the Idaho SAT School Day is appropriated by the legislature through the public education appropriations, home school and private school students cannot participate with the SAT School Day administration at a local high school. 
However, if your student is enrolled in at least one class at a local or online public high school, your student can participate.  Please contact your student’s public school for additional information on registration.

For Students
ACT Compass is an untimed, computerized test that helps your college evaluate your skills and place you into appropriate courses. Compass offers tests in reading, writing, math, writing essay, and English as a Second Language (ESL). You will receive your Compass test results immediately upon completion of testing, and your score report will include placement messages informing you what courses you should take and how to register.
​
How Can I Take the Compass Tests?
Most institutions give Compass during orientation to incoming freshmen who have already applied and been admitted to the school. Some institutions may require you to take one or more of the Compass tests before enrolling in a particular program or course.
