Required Examinations to Enter US University
Universities in the US typically require SAT (Scholastic Aptitude Test) or ACT (American College Testing) examination scores in order to apply. Therefore, it is important for you to take one (or both). There are testing dates throughout the year, with registration deadlines generally a month prior.
There are testing centres throughout the UK. Registering for the SAT through the CollegeBoard.com web site is swift and easy.
It is always worth familiarising yourself with the style of questions. Kaplan are a good source for preparing for this exam.
Keep in mind these tests examine your maths skills, and therefore it may be best to take them before you get rusty if you've given up the subject.
All applications will also have to be substantiated with “Transcripts” . This is an official list of all your secondary school courses, how many hours/week each one was and your grade in each. You can make the list yourself in English and have it notarised by an official.
