What is an ACT student Web account and why do I need one?
An ACT student Web account not only allows you to register online, but also allows you to access a variety of ACT services, even if you register by mail. For example, you will need a student Web account to view your scores or make changes to your registration before the deadline.
ACT encourages all students to establish a free student Web account. You will need this account to register on the Web and to view your scores.
