- The ACT is a commonly accepted college admissions test with four sections: English, math, reading and science. There is an additional writing section which may be required by some universities. It is recommended that students take the ACT at least twice to try to get the best possible score.
- The SAT is a college admission test with three sections: critical reading, math and writing. Less commonly used by Utah colleges and universities but accepted everywhere.
- These tests are typically taken during the fall of a student's junior year and in the fall of their senior year.
- Waivers for registration fees are available for those students who qualify based on household income. Please see your guidance counselor if you believe you qualify.

The PSAT is a practice test for the SAT college entrance exam. It is also the test used by the National Merit Scholar Program as a qualifying test. It is a three-hour test given once a year in October. The National Merit Scholarship Competition used only the PSAT test taken in the junior year to award National Merit Scholar Semi-finalist status.
AP courses provide college-level curriculum assisting students in acquiring writing, problem solving, time management skills and habits they'll need to be successful in college. By passing the AP exam student may receive college credits. AP tests are ordered early October and offered in May. The cost is $95 per test.
