ACT Testing

At Forest Lake Academy, we guide students through the important process of preparing for the SAT and ACT. Most colleges and universities accept scores from either exam for admission and scholarships, though some schools have moved to “test-optional” policies—meaning scores may not be required for admission but could still be used for class placement or scholarship eligibility. While testing requirements vary, SAT and ACT scores remain essential for Florida Bright Futures Scholarships and many institutional awards.

 

Need to Know:

    • Most colleges accept either the SAT or ACT.
    • Some schools are “test-optional,” but scores may still impact scholarships or placement.
    • Florida Bright Futures Scholarships require SAT or ACT scores.
    • Students are encouraged to take both exams at least once to compare results.
    • Both tests are digital at FLA, and students must bring their own laptops.
    • Forest Lake Academy is a Sunday testing site.
