Students can receive registration information from their high school guidance counselors or they can register on ACT’s website at www.actstudent.org. The website also features test tips, practice tests, online test prep, and a database for students to find out if a prospective college requires a writing score.
ACT scores are accepted by virtually all colleges and universities in the nation, including all Ivy League schools. Scores are used, along with a student’s high school GPA, high school courses taken, extracurricular activities and other information to help determine if a student is academically ready for college-level course work.
The ACT Assessment is an achievement test that includes four exams: English, reading, math and science. Students who take the optional Writing Test will add 30 minutes to the three-hour normal testing time. Most colleges and universities don’t require a writing score, so student should check the writing test requirements of colleges they’re considering before registering for the ACT.
