How to Access the SSD Online Dashboard

To access SSD Online, the school must designate an SSD coordinator to be responsible for testing accommodations for College Board exams.

The SSD Coordinator acts as a liaison between the school and the College Board, ensuring that students can take College Board exams with the appropriate accommodations. They submit accommodations requests for their students using SSD Online. SSD coordinators are usually special education coordinators, guidance directors, or school counselors.

Schools may have more than one SSD coordinator, but each must be registered. If your school has multiple coordinators, one will be designated as primary. The school’s primary SSD coordinator is also designated the testing coordinator for any SAT Weekend school-based testing. This role includes receiving secure test materials for paper-based testing and overseeing test-day accommodations.
