So I signed up for an upcoming SAT, but I might need to cancel/reschedule due to unforeseen circumstances. Can anyone enlighten me on the College Board's SAT refund policy, please? Are there any situations where they might make an exception?
As per the College Board's policies, you can cancel your SAT registration ahead of the test day, but please note, a $29 fee will be deducted from your paid registration amount.
The cancellation procedures are straightforward. You can cancel by phone or mail, but make certain to do so no later than five days before the test. After that time frame, no refund will be given.
If you're considering rescheduling, you can transfer your registration to a future test date for a fee of $29. It's advisable, however, to reschedule as soon as possible, or at least within the registration deadline for the new date.
Regrettably, the College Board generally does not make exceptions to these policies, except in situations of severe illness, natural disasters, or immediate family emergencies. These cases, however, require supporting documentation and go through a review process. For such exceptions, you'll need to contact College Board customer service directly to discuss your situation.
