Message from Ms. Mae
Students in the ECHS program are 4-year university bound and one of the requirements to apply are either SAT or ACT. Tests must be completed by December of their 12th Grade year. UC/CSU may take either test, but for private colleges it is best to reference their admissions requirements prior to deciding which one to take.
