Where can I get a SAT Subject Test fee waiver?! :[?

I would like to apply to some college besides my local state schools, because, well, I would like to experience the whole college thing, leave home and hopefully, make something good of myself. The only thing that stands in my way is a stupid test and the inability to pay it. There is no credit card nor checking account for me to use (the only ways to pay online). My guidance office is unreliable at school. They apparently do not have anymore or don’t know where they are.

I am eligible for the waiver (I have already gotten one for the SAT test which I already took.) But where can I get the code to waive the fee if it is not from my high school? I called a high school in my area, and no one called me back. The last day of school is on Thursday before we go to holiday break and the deadline for the Jan test is December 26, so I am running out of time. Jan is the last test date my prospective schools will accept scores from. Anyone have some advice or can help me? :[

How does sending ACT scores to colleges work?

I took the ACT test last year and got a pretty good score of 30. I’m probably going to take it again by the end of this school year, but I’m a bit unsure of how sending the score will work.

When I took it last year, I had no idea what colleges I wanted to attend and so I basically sent my score report to random ones. Now, this year, I have a better idea of what college I want to go to. Although I realize that only your best test score counts, the ACT web site says that only your score report for your specific test date will be sent to the colleges you choose. So, say I get a lower score on the ACT this time around and my score is sent to the new colleges I have chosen. Will they be able to only see this score, or will they also see that I scored a 30 last time?

I know, slightly confusing, but I am confused myself. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

How come my ACT scores still haven't been posted?(i took it on a Sunday) Was my test lost?

i know i didn’t score that great, but still the results are not on Act student.
it’s been almost a month now.
usually i would have gotten to see them two weeks ago, and this would have actually been the week that i get the scores in the mail.
i took the sunday test with writing, cause i go to church on saturdays.
what can i do? everyday i go to actstudent, it still says MAKE CHANGES TO YOUR REGISTRATION, AND WHEN WILL SCORES BE READY on that particular test date.
DO you think my test was lost or something happened?

Question on SAT/ACT score reports to colleges?

When ACT and SAT say they charge like maybe a fee to send to colleges if you didn’t send them anywhere on your registration, is that per test date to as many colleges as you need (I have 5 to apply to this fall) or per test date per college?

How long does it take to get your SAT scores?

I’m supposed to test tomorrow, but for health-related reasons, I won’t be able to make it. The next test date is October 10, and I was wondering how long it will take for my scores to get posted online or get mailed to me because the application deadline for the college I want to apply to is November 30. Is it possible to send them any SAT scores after the application deadline?

I want to do a summer program but for application I have to send ACT/SAT test scores & I haven't taken them?

The application deadline is March 3rd.
I’m taking the ACT March 16th, and i will be registering for the May 1st SAT test date.
The program is at a local college, and is for students that might be interested in a medical career, so you volunteer at hospitals, go to lectures, watch surgeries, and stay in a dorm for two weeks through the summer.
I just won’t have scores in time, so any suggestions on how to apply without scores or anything?
