Information regarding the application for accommodations on the SAT and the ACT is described below: You should therefore plan to start the review and application process early should this need arise or if further documentation is needed. This testing is not provided or funded by LVUSD. While your student may be appropriately accommodated in the school setting as indicated by his/her IEP or Section 504 Service Plan, the testing agencies have different criteria and may request updated educational or medical testing. Your student’s outcome may not be the same for both. The SAT and ACT are operated by different companies that have distinct policies and review processes.


The PSAT/SAT/ACT testing service agencies ( not the school or the school district) review the accommodations a student is receiving under his/her Section 504 Service Plan or IEP and make an independent determination as to whether accommodations for college entrance exams will be granted. The Las Virgenes Unified School District (LVUSD) Section 504 and IEP teams do not have the authority to mandate or approve PSAT/SAT/ACT accommodations, as private companies such as the College Board or the ACT administer these tests.
