Why was I assigned to a test center that was not one of my original choices? Can I change this?
When you registered, the test center you chose was either full or unavailable. We assigned you to the nearest available test center, based on your original choices, that had a seat and materials for your test option.
To request a Test Center Change, log in to your student Web account and select "Make changes to your registration" or call ACT Registration at 319/337-1270 by the late deadline for your test date. When you call, have your ACT ID, test date, test option, preferred test center and a valid credit card number with expiration date.
If there is room at your preferred test center for your test option, you will be assigned there and charged a $20.00 Test Center Change fee.
If you miss the late deadline, you can try to make a test center change on test day.
Note: If you were approved for extended time, we assigned you to the nearest test center with an extended time seat. This may not be the center on the standard time admission ticket you received when you registered. If you were approved for accommodations other than extended time, we assigned you to the nearest available test center that could provide those accommodations.
