Canceling Scores

Canceling Scores at the Test Center

Test and registration fees (including late fees and telephone re-registration fees) will not be refunded if you cancel your test scores.

SAT®

  • When you cancel your scores, all scores from all sections of the test are canceled for that test day; this includes critical reading, mathematics, and writing sections. You cannot cancel scores on individual sections.
  • If you want to cancel your scores on test day, you should ask the test supervisor for a Request to Cancel Test Scores Form. Complete the form immediately and return it to the test supervisor before leaving the room. Once your request to cancel scores has been submitted, your scores cannot be reinstated and are not reported to you or your designated institutions.

SAT Subject Tests™

When you cancel your SAT Subject Test scores, all of the SAT Subject Tests taken on that date are canceled—except in case of equipment failure (see below). If you begin taking a test and then decide that you are not prepared for it, you should cancel test scores for the day. Erasing answers cannot guarantee that your test won't be scored; however, if your scores are canceled for that erased test, your scores from all tests taken that day are canceled.

If your calculator or CD player fails during a Mathematics Level 1 or Level 2 test, or during a Language Test with Listening, you have the option to cancel just that test. You can still keep scores from other SAT Subject Tests taken the same day. To do this you must:

  • Report the equipment failure immediately to the room supervisor during the test.
  • Fill out and sign a Request to Cancel Test Scores Form, checking off "Single Subject Test Equipment Failure."
  • Return the completed form to the room supervisor before leaving.

Canceling Scores After You Leave the Test Center

You may decide to cancel your scores after you leave the test center. We must receive your request to cancel scores in writing by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time, on the Wednesday after the test date. To cancel scores, download and print the SAT Request to Cancel Test Scores form (.pdf/38.8K). Fill out the form completely, and be sure to sign it and return it by the deadline above. You cannot submit cancellation requests by phone or email—your signature is required.
