Georgetown International Academy is a testing center for the SAT. The school follows all College Board guidelines to ensure a standardized and secure testing environment.
The SAT is widely recognized by universities worldwide and plays a crucial role in college admissions. It measures students’ skills in reading, writing, and math, helping universities assess academic readiness. Many colleges and scholarship programs consider SAT scores as part of their admissions process, making it an important step for students planning to pursue higher education.
To register for the SAT, students must apply through the official College Board website. Click the button below to access the registration portal, where you can select your test date, locate Georgetown International Academy as your testing center, and complete the necessary steps. Be sure to register before the deadline to secure your spot.
The SAT is administered using a secure testing application called Bluebook, which must be installed on a compatible digital device before test day. Students are required to bring their own approved laptop or tablet that meets technical specifications and is fully charged, as power outlets may not be available during the exam.
Before your test, you’ll need to install Bluebook on the device you plan to use. Between 1 to 5 days before the exam, you’ll complete a brief setup within the app. This step ensures your device meets all system requirements, downloads your test, and generates your admission ticket, which you’ll need to bring to the test center.
