If you are working with students that are deaf or hard of hearing, they may use an interpreter to translate test directions from spoken English into American Sign Language or an English-based sign system. If this is the only accommodation needed, the student may test at a national administration and the test will be considered a standard administration.
Students are responsible for supplying their own interpreter.
No SSD Student Eligibility Form is required for using an interpreter to translate spoken directions. To use an interpreter, students should notify College Board SSD by letter. Letters should be mailed with the SAT Registration Form in the envelope provided no later than the regular registration deadline. You and your interpreter should arrive at the test center early on test day to be assured of optimum seating. Please see your counselor for registration and additional information.
