The SAT Program Fee-Waiver Service is designed to help students from whom test fees represent obstacles on the road to college.
High school juniors and seniors in the United States, Puerto Rico, and U.S. territories who cannot afford to pay the test fees can request fee waivers through their school counselors.
The waivers cover the basic test fees for SAT or Subject Tests, as well as either the Question-and-Answer Service (QAS) or the Student Answer Service (SAS). A fee waiver may qualify you for application fee waivers at many colleges. See your counselor for more information or to find out if you qualify.
Note: Fee waivers cannot be used for late registration.

ACT and SAT Testing Information
ACT and College Board (SAT) recommend on-line registration. Additional registration information and/or packets are available in the Counseling Office. ACT and SAT registration fee information is included within the registration packet. The ACT and the SAT are two tests that are used for college admission and scholarship purposes. They are different tests produced by different testing companies. They test different areas of knowledge, and they are scored differently.
The ACT will be offered at Olathe East in October, April and June. Seniors often take an ACT in October. It is recommended that Grade 11 students take their first ACT in April or June if planning to attend a four year college or university. The ACT is generally preferred by colleges in the Midwest and is accepted throughout the nation.
The SAT has a mandatory writing component and the ACT features an optional writing section that some colleges and universities will require. How will you know what a college requires? Check for admission requirements at university websites. Both ACT and SAT offer online preparation tests. Encourage students to practice!
