Homeschooler looking to register for the PSAT

Hey guys! I'm a homeschooler and I've been trying to figure out how to sign up for the PSAT. Is it different for those of us not in a traditional school setting? Any advice or steps I need to follow would be a huge help!

Hey there! The PSAT registration process is indeed a little different for homeschoolers since you can't register online or through a school. What you need to do is reach out to local high schools in your area to see if they would allow you to take the PSAT at their venue. Make sure to contact them well in advance of the test, as spots can be limited and they’ll need time to accommodate an extra student.

Remember that each school sets its own registration deadlines and they might be earlier than you expect. They will also inform you about the test fee and any specific instructions you need to follow. Just be polite and persistent, and you should be able to find a place to take the PSAT. Good luck!
