College Board Testing Accommodations 

Students who would like to apply to the College Board for testing accommodations through their school must submit application and parental consent forms before January 15th in order to provide schools time to meet the submission deadline established by the College Board. Please contact your school’s Services for Students with Disabilities (SSD) coordinator for additional information. Families can also submit requests directly to College Board. 

 

Please note that testing accommodations listed on IEPs or 504s are not automatically granted for AP testing, so families must apply separately to the College Board. If a student already has College Board accommodations approved from a previous PSAT/NMSQT, PSAT 10, SAT, or AP test, then no further action is needed. Once instated, accommodations remain in place for all College Board testing.
