This year, Westmont will be holding the PSAT/NMSQT assessment on Wednesday, October 13th. The test will run from 8:30 am to 12:25 pm. All 10th graders will be automatically enrolled for free to participate in the PSAT/NMSQT and most sophomore classes for 1st and 2nd period will not be held during the test time (students will be excused from any classes they are missing). Interested 11th graders that would like to sign-up for the PSAT/NMSQT may reserve a seat for $20 on the Westmont Webstore. There are a limited number of seats available for juniors, so please reserve your seat by September 30th. Juniors will be excused from their first and second period classes if they are taking the PSAT/NMSQT. All students will attend their third period classes after lunch.
More information regarding the specifics of the PSAT/NMSQT testing day will be sent closer to the day of the test, but please plan to arrive for the test at school on Wednesday, Oct. 13th, no later than 8:15 am so that students may find their room assignments and the test may begin on time.

SENDING YOUR TEST SCORES:
ACT (For more information about the ACT and to register for the test and send scores, go to ACT.org.)
If you list a CSU/UC campus as an ACT score report recipient, your scores will automatically be sent to all campuses to which you submit an application.
If you haven’t yet arranged for your ACT scores to be sent to a CSU/UC/private campus, you can learn how to request this at ACT.org.
SAT
CSU campuses will accept old and current SAT scores for admission through 2020. Applicants may submit scores from either test.
If you list a CSU campus(es) as an SAT score report recipient, your scores will automatically be sent to all campuses to which you've applied. You can also use the CSU systemwide institution code (3594) on Collegboard.com to ensure that all CSU campuses to which you apply receive your scores. This is also the same for the UC system, you only need to submit your score to one UC Campus.
To check where your scores were sent, or for more information on locating your College Board ID, visit this page.
*We do not recommend using College Board's Score Choice module as it delays processing of your request.
