State Policy and Funding

Most colleges—including those that are test-optional—use scores to inform decisions on course credit and placement, scholarships, and targeted support on campus. Across the country, states are partnering with the College Board to offer AP Exams and the SAT Suite of Assessments at a reduced rate or no cost to students in their state. College Board also provides fee reductions for eligible students with financial need.
