What has already passed

As of 31 October 2026, the 3 October 2026 SAT is over. College Board's dates page is the source for the dates below.

For the 7 November 2026 test, registration closed on 23 October 2026. The deadline for changes, regular cancellation, and late registration closed on 27 October 2026. The dates page also says registration is open for remaining fall dates. The deadline table says 7 November registration has closed. If you registered before that deadline, you still sit on 7 November.

Deadlines expire at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time. Confirm the live College Board page before you register. The SAT guide covers the test itself.

Dates you can still register for

According to the College Board SAT dates and deadlines page (2026), the following weekend administrations remain open. These dates and cutoffs apply equally to all students, both in the United States and internationally.

Each deadline ends at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time. Late registration is open worldwide for students who miss the initial registration cutoff, though College Board applies an additional fee for late entries. Please confirm current fee rules on the live portal before booking.

If you plan to borrow a testing device directly from College Board, you must submit your registration and device request at least 30 days before your chosen test day. This window closes earlier than the standard registration cutoff.

For students requesting Sunday administrations, College Board permits Sunday testing only when religious observance prevents Saturday attendance. According to the College Board International assessments calendar 2026-27 (2026), Sunday testing dates immediately follow their corresponding Saturday dates. Always confirm availability and requirements on the live College Board portal before submitting your application.

When scores come out

According to the College Board Score release dates page (2026), most weekend test scores become available online two to four weeks after test day.

The student score release dates for upcoming administrations are:

  • 7 November 2026 test: 20 November 2026
