Give Your Students the SAT Edge
The SAT provides more opportunity for more students in less time. Learn why the SAT is the most widely chosen college admission test.
Stronger Outcomes Start Earlier
The SAT is most powerful when it’s part of a connected journey. When students take the SAT after earlier SAT Suite assessments, they build familiarity and confidence over time, receive consistent feedback, and benefit from ongoing support, entering the SAT better prepared to demonstrate their readiness. As the capstone of the SAT Suite, the SAT provides a trusted, college-reportable measure of readiness—built on years of aligned insight.

Get Students Real-World Ready
Every student's score report includes a list of growing career options in their state, drawn from a database of 1,800+ careers mapped to SAT Suite results. Starting spring 2027, students will see clear statements about what they can do in real-world career contexts, paired with the top career clusters in their state where those skills are most in demand. Every student, regardless of their postsecondary plans, receives a score report that feels relevant to their future.
Connect Students to Opportunities Beyond Graduation
Students can easily get their scores through the BigFuture School mobile app, designed for those taking an assessment on a school day. In schools and districts where available, students age 13 and older can also opt in to Connections™ to discover nonprofit colleges, scholarship providers, and government agencies administering education programs and match with institutions that meet their preferences and are interested in students like them—without sharing any personal information.
