ACT and SAT Dates for 2013-13

ü Although you can apply for college admission before you have taken the actual test, don't wait too long. Also, many scholarships require ACT or SAT scores.

ü Both registrations can be completed online; in fact, both prefer that you do. Our high school code is 270-800.

ü Test center codes are: Great Falls High 179600, and CM Russell 179590
