SAT and disabled students

My child is disabled? How do I know if he is eligible for accommodations to take the SAT?

From College Board...

Eligibility

What are the College Board's eligibility requirements?

If you have a documented disability you may be eligible for accommodations on College Board tests (i.e., SAT, SAT Subject Tests, AP, PSAT). If you are seeking accommodations on a College Board test, you must complete a Student Eligibility Form.

To be eligible, you must:

1. have a disability that necessitates testing accommodations,
2. have documentation on file at your school that supports the need for requested accommodations and meets the Guidelines for Documentation, and
3. receive and use the requested accommodations, due to the disability, for school-based tests.

If any of these requirements are not met, you may still be eligible. You may send your disability documentation with the Student Eligibility Form to the College Board for review and determination. The disability documentation must adhere to the Guidelines for Documentation on page 1 of the Instructions.

What disabilities make you eligible for accommodations?

There are many disabilities that impact a student's academic functioning. Here are a few:

• Blindness/Vision Impairment
• AD/HD (formerly known as A.D.D. /A.D.H.D.)
• Learning Disabilities
• Deafness/Hearing Impairment
• Certain Medical Conditions
• Certain Physical Disabilities
• Certain Psychiatric Conditions
