If you're eligible for a fee waiver, you can take the SAT or SAT Subject Tests for free and get other benefits to apply to college.

Viewing Your Fee Waiver Benefits

Students with SAT fee waivers can sign in and view their full set of fee waiver benefits.

You'll see your benefits and what you have left if:

• You've already used an SAT fee waiver for tests during or after October 2014.
• You took the SAT on a school day during or after October 2017 and already accepted your full set of fee waiver benefits.
• You enter a 12-digit fee waiver code when registering for upcoming tests.

How to Get a Fee Waiver

If you think you're eligible, your school counselor or a representative of an authorized community-based organization will help you get a fee waiver.

If you're home-schooled, you can get fee waivers by contacting a local high school counselor. Just provide proof of eligibility, such as tax records or proof of enrollment in an aid program like those listed below.

Are You Eligible?

SAT fee waivers are available to low-income 11th and 12th grade students in the U.S. or U.S. territories. U.S. citizens living outside the country may be able to have test fees waived. SAT Subject Test fee waivers are available for students in grades 9–12.

You're eligible for fee waivers if you say "yes" to any of the following:

• You're enrolled in or eligible to participate in the National School Lunch Program (NSLP).
• Your annual family income falls within the Income Eligibility Guidelines set by the USDA Food and Nutrition Service.
• You're enrolled in a federal, state, or local program that aids students from low-income families (e.g., Federal TRIO programs such as Upward Bound).
• Your family receives public assistance.
• You live in federally subsidized public housing or a foster home, or are homeless.
• You are a ward of the state or an orphan.
