SAT/ACTCollege bound students are usually required to take a college entrance exam. Some colleges and universities have other ways to enter such as by committee. If you will be attending a two year college, you may be required to take the TSI. (details below) Those students who are top ten percent and will be automatically admitted to a state public college must meet TSI exemptions in order to enroll in classes. UT automatically admits top 6% of the senior class. Juniors, you will want to test in the spring or summer to be ready to apply to college in the fall, especially if you are in the top ten percent. You can begin applying to colleges after July 1 between your junior and senior year. College applications open July 1. Seniors, if you have not tested, try to test early in the fall in order to meet college entrance deadlines. We offer the SAT and ACT at Shepherd High School during the school day.
