The SAT® School Day in Ohiocollegeboard.org/Ohio

Ohio school leaders have the ability to select which college entrance exam to administer to their 11th grade students in Spring 2019.

We have one question for you:

“What do your students, parents, and educators deserve from the college entrance exam you pick?”

When you pick the SAT, your community receives…

What do your students deserve?

The SAT provides free, unique supports and resources for low-income students, including:

• Two national SAT administration fee waivers

• Unlimited score sends to colleges and universities

• Four college application fee waivers

• Unlimited Profile fee waivers to connect students to scholarships

The SAT provides personalized practice for students and coaching tools for educators via Official SAT Practice on Khan Academy that research has shown can improve student performance.

• Scores for students who practice 6-8 hours using Official SAT Practice increase 90 points on average.

“We had 11% more students meeting the Ohio Remediation Free Benchmark using the SAT.”

Not just a test and a score

• The SAT is aligned to Ohio’s Learning Standards and our data/reports reflect those connections to impact instruction.

• The PSAT 8/9 and PSAT/NMSQT (PSAT10) can help students prepare for the SAT and provide the ability to measure student growth and progress towards college and career readiness from grades 8 to 11.

• AP Potential, Skills Insight, and Roadmap to Careers provide students, parents, and educators with information and tools to help students meet their college and career goals.

• A set of assessments that students like (Based on a survey of students that took the Redesigned SAT in March 2016)

“We chose to go with SAT because there are lots of supports in place to help prepare the students for the test

through Khan Academy and with the PSAT.”

“It was easy, less paperwork.”

“I was impressed with most of it. Students understood it quickly, the timing was much easier and I felt more in control of starting and timing the tests.”

“The digital platform was easy to use. We are familiar with this format, as we administer the AIR tests.”

Accommodations are submitted through an online system.

• Most students who have the accommodation written into their IEP or 504 and use that accommodation for testing will be automatically approved under our submission processes.

• Students who have previously been approved for College Board accommodations do not need to resubmit. Their accommodation will apply to SAT.

• There are two types of accommodations:

• Those that result in college reportable scores

• Those that result in scores for students, districts, and the state but that cannot be used for college admissions or the Ohio remediation free standard.

• Some accommodations require students to test on the primary test date. There are others that allow students to be flexibly scheduled throughout an accommodated testing window.
