    FAQs

    When is the next SAT test date?

    The next Digital SAT administration is August 22, 2026.

    How far in advance should I register for the SAT?

    Register 4–5 weeks before your test date to avoid late fees and to secure your preferred test center. Popular centers fill quickly in the fall.

    Is the SAT offered every month?

    No. The current August 2026–June 2027 College Board schedule has eight weekend dates: August, September, October, November, December, March, May, and June. The listed dates apply to US and international students.

    What if my target date passes?

    Select the next available date. The countdown automatically hides dates that have already passed.
