Hi everyone, I'm a little bit stressed about this - does anyone know how to apply for a waiver for the ACT? I'm having a bit of trouble navigating through their website and I really don't wanna miss out on any opportunities for fee assistance. Thanks in advance!
No worries, I'm happy to help! To apply for an ACT Fee Waiver, you'll need to speak with your school counselor or a representative at your high school. They'll have the information and paperwork you need to apply for a waiver. You can't apply for the fee waiver directly on the ACT website.
In order to be eligible for a fee waiver, you usually need to meet specific income-based requirements or be enrolled in a federal program like free or reduced-cost lunch. Keep in mind that fee waivers are distributed on a first-come, first-serve basis, so it's a good idea to communicate with your counselor early ASAP to make sure you get one.
I hope this clears up your issue, and I wish you the best of luck with your ACT preparation! Feel free to reach out if you have any other questions or concerns.
