    How Accommodations Work

    Before students with disabilities can take the PSAT/NMSQT, PSAT 10, SAT, or Advanced Placement Exams with accommodations—such as extended time or assistive technology—the request must be approved by College Board’s Services for Students with Disabilities (SSD).

    Who Is Eligible?

    Read eligibility, examples, and limitations for extended time, breaks, reading and seeing accommodations, recording responses, use of a four-function calculator, assistive technology, and other accommodations.

    About Accommodations
