Cancellation timing matters
The regular cancellation deadline is the same published change/late-registration deadline for the test date. A higher late-cancellation fee applies after that deadline through the College Board cutoff before test day.

Before changing or cancelling an SAT registration
Refund and change fees are time-sensitive. Always recheck the live College Board policy before making a payment or cancelling a registration.
- Check the current College Board deadline and fee table for the specific test date; cancellation, late cancellation and registration-change rules can differ.
- If you plan to switch dates, compare the cost and availability before cancelling a seat you already hold.
- Keep the confirmation email or account record showing the change or cancellation.
- Scholarship or university deadlines may make a later test date unusable even if registration is technically available.
