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

College Board considers all requests for accommodations needed by students with documented disabilities.

How Accommodations Work for Each Test

How to prepare for test day when taking these exams with accommodations: PSAT 8/9; PSAT/NMSQT and PSAT 10; SAT; AP Exams; Accuplacer, CLEP, and other College Board exams.
