College Entrance Testing

  • The Guidance Department recommends that students take a SAT or ACT test during the spring of their junior year and again in the fall of their senior year. Both tests are acceptable for college admissions.
  • Register online at http://www.collegeboard.com/ or http://www.actstudent.org/.
  • The school code for Salesian High School is 052-637.
  • Students who are considering applying to a UC are no longer required to take the SAT Subject Tests. Many UC’s will consider the tests “value added” to the application. Visit UC's admissions page to see a comprehensive list of the campus recommendations. If math is chosen, the student must take Math Level 2.
  • Students should register early for tests as they will have a better chance of getting their first choice of test center (Salesian High School is not a test center).
  • No SAT or ACT tests are offered during the summer.
  • All testing should be completed no later December of senior year.
  • Seniors: Check out “Important Dates” for registration deadlines and testing dates.
