Is non-Saturday testing available?
Non-Saturday testing is available only in remote areas or for students who cannot test on Saturday because of religious convictions. If there is a test center within 50 miles of your home for any test date, you should plan to register for that date and request that center. If you try to test standby (in the U.S. or Canada only) or make a test center change to a Sunday or Monday test center, you must bring a letter from your cleric or a notarized statement to verify your religious beliefs prohibit Saturday testing.
If there is not a non-Saturday test center within 50 miles of your home on any of the scheduled test dates, do not register. Instead, write to ACT Arranged Testing, P.O. Box 4028, Iowa City, IA 52243-4028, and describe your situation. We will send you information about arranged testing. You can also download a Request for Arranged Testing (PDF; 4 pages, 57KB) and ask your counselor for help completing it.
