Welcome Seniors!
Have you taken or signed up to take a college entrance test? Check out the links below to help you sign up for the SAT or ACT which is required by all 4-year colleges and universities. If you are planning to attend a community college in Florida, you can take the SAT or ACT but a third alternative test is also available - the PERT. The PERT is a computer generated test and must be taken at the College of Central Florida. There is no charge for taking PERT the first time if you get a voucher from your counselor.
College Entrance Tests
If you are a JUNIOR or SENIOR student who currently receives free or reduced school lunch, you are eligible for two (2)ACT and (2)SAT fee waivers during your high school career (not each school year).
