SAT Fee Waivers

If you're eligible for a fee waiver, you can take the SAT for free and get other benefits.

Getting a Fee Waiver

If you think you're eligible, talk to your school counselor about getting a fee waiver code from them or, starting in fall 2023, request a fee waiver directly from College Board.

If you choose to request a fee waiver directly from College Board, please:

  • Review the eligibility criteria.
  • Be mindful of registration deadlines and apply for fee waivers early so you can apply those benefits in a timely manner.
  • Be prepared to share the contact information of an adult who can verify your eligibility.
  • Talk to your school counselor if you have questions about the process.

Homeschooled Students

If you're homeschooled, you can get a fee waiver by contacting a local high school counselor or, starting in fall 2023, you can request a fee waiver directly from College Board.
