homeschoolin'mygirls Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 I can't believe I've forgotten to reg her. We're in Texas--I went to college board site but I haven't a clue how to find out. Hope I haven't messed this up Nandell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outtamyshell Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 I think you have to find a public school that will allow her to take the test with them. We skipped this test and regretted it later. You might want to get on the phone with some public schools in your area. Others with experience may have other ideas, but I thought I'd throw that out there since no one's responded yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ailaena Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 You just reminded me that I needed to find out, also! In AZ, there was a homeschool group that gave the test. In this state, the registration for PSAT begins Sep 23 and you have to sign up through the school. Following the College Board guidelines, it is not supposed to be any sort of issue to have homeschooled students take it at any school.

I just recently signed up my 10th grader to take the test, for a "practice run" for next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravelingChris Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 I called last Spring and they told me to call in the fall after school starts. I did that last year in a different state too. I will be calling later next week since school starts here on the 8th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Call around to schools in your area that are offering the PSAT - you can find the list at the College Board. Check both high schools and junior high schools. I think most are just now placing their order for the test materials. If you get a "No" keep calling and don't assume a "No" at other schools. You might even have to call the principals or school superintendent for consideration. We were told "No" then ended up having a couple of schools more than happy to accommodate us. Also make sure you look up the homeschool code to use on test day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homeschoolin'mygirls Posted September 1, 2009 Author Share Posted September 1, 2009 I find the homeschool code? I don't see it on the College Board site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
readwithem Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 I find the homeschool code? I don't see it on the College Board site For the PSAT' date=' it depends on your state. You can find the state codes for homeschoolers by clicking on the link here. How nice they've added a link to find schools administering the PSAT in your area! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
