ACT & SAT INFORMATION

ACT

The ACT is going to be given on April 2nd here in the student center. Registration will open up very soon on www.act.org.  Once you have a username and password, you can register for tests and also have access to the practice exams if you want more practice. (online preparation www.act.org/theact/testprep)

Board of Regents Colleges - Iowa, ISU and UNI - are ACT test optional going forward.  See article for more information.  However, you may still need ACT scores for academic scholarships you wish to pursue.

Students that are on free/reduced lunch and have their paperwork filed with the front office are eligible for a fee-waiver. Talk to Mr. Albertson if you have questions. There are also tests in June and July at NIACC if that time frame works better for you. The Writing portion of the test is optional, if you choose to take it, will cost extra $.

Juniors - if you want Composition I next year for your Senior English, you will need to score a 16 on the English section of the ACT to be eligible. Bring me a copy (or e-mail it to me) of your name with your English score when you want to register for Composition I so that you will be able to show NIACC your eligibility. See me for any questions.
