If you miss the deadline for changing your registration, you may try to change on test day.*
To do this, take your admission ticket to the center where you want to test on test day. If space and materials are available after all students registered for that center for your test option have been seated, you may be admitted.
If the changes you make require additional fees, ACT will bill you for these change fees after the test date.
*
You must be registered to test on the current test date to make changes on test day. If room is not available, you may choose to test as you had originally registered, or you may leave and request to test on a later date.
How to locate test center/test option/test date information
Your assigned test center, test date, and test option—ACT (No Writing) or ACT Plus Writing—are listed on the left side of your admission ticket. If an asterisk (*) appears next to the test center code, none of your original choices were available. When this happens, ACT assigns you to the nearest test center, based on your original choices, with space available for your test option. We encourage you to test there.
