Accessing SSOR

Sign up for a webinar to learn more about SSOR and best practices.

Authorized users manage ordering and registration for the SAT Suite of Assessments in the SAT Suite Ordering and Registration (SSOR) site.

Access to SSOR is handled by your SSOR access manager using the Managing Access tool. See the Accessing section of the SSOR Help page for more information about this critical step: SSOR Help Center for Schools and SSOR Help Center for Districts.

Before schools can order tests, the SAT Suite Ordering and Registration access manager (typically the district or school test coordinator) will need to complete the following four steps in the Managing Access tool.

  1. Set Up Roles for Ordering and Registration:
    • Districts and schools must establish access to College Board's Managing Access tool. New access managers or access managers with expired access can use an access code to set up their accounts. If you don't have an access code, check with your test coordinator or principal. If they don't have one, contact Customer Service.
    • Districts and schools with existing access managers can extend the expiration date for themselves and others at their organizations to ensure they maintain existing roles and access.
  2. SAT Suite Ordering Role:
    • Give access to the person responsible for ordering tests (also called the purchaser).
    • This role will also:
      • Select the number of students testing, the grades testing, and when testing is planned to start.
      • Identify additional staff needed for testing in SSOR.
      • Identify the organization's billing contact who will receive an invoice via email after testing.
  3. SAT Suite Data Coordinator Role:
    • Give access to the person responsible for managing student enrollment data.
    • Upload and submit student data in SSOR.
    • You may need to work with your district or student information system administrator to extract and format student data from your systems to create your SSOR student registration data file upload.
  4. SAT Suite Registration Role:
    • Give access to the test coordinator and SSD coordinator.
    • These roles will review registration data uploaded and submitted by the data coordinator in SSOR to make sure it matches the students who will be testing.
    • The SSD coordinator will ensure that students' accommodation information is accurate.
    • Once these steps have been completed, the test coordinator will register the students who will be testing using the Register Students option in SSOR.
