香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 Test Accommodations and English Learner Supports

Submit for Approval

香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 is committed to providing appropriate accommodations for examinees who take the 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 test. To request accommodations, you will need to work with a school official, because the accommodations requested should be similar to the accommodations you currently receive in school. Accommodations MUST be approved by 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 before testing. A request alone is not enough.

All requests, including appeals, must be submitted by the late registration deadline for your preferred test date. If your request is not properly submitted, it may not be approved in time for your preferred test date.

How to Make a Request

Not in school?

Please see Examinees Who Are Homeschooled or Are Not Currently Enrolled for instructions.

Step 1

Register to test.

Log into and complete the following:

  1. Link a valid high school to your My香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 account before you register to allow 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 to communicate your registration to the associated school official in TAA. Consider searching for your high school by zip code, which may be different than your home address.
  2. Select 鈥榊es鈥 when prompted to confirm you need accommodations after beginning the registration process. If you selected 鈥榥o鈥, you will need to contact 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 as soon as possible to update your registration if you need to test with accommodations. 

You can also view this helpful video that provides a walkthrough of the registration process:

Work with your school official to submit your request.

After you register, you will receive an email that you must forward to your school official. You also need to provide a completed Consent to Release Information to 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 (PDF) form.

Your school official must submit your accommodations request in TAA before the late registration deadline for your test. Once submitted, requests can take 5-10 business days to process.

Need additional help? You can also review the step-by-step video:

Note: If the accommodations you need were previously approved, you should not submit a new request. Skip this step.

Review the decision notification with your school official.

Your school official will receive a copy of the decision notification. If your request was denied, review your decision notification with your school official. You have until the late registration deadline to submit an appeal.

Note: If after 10 business days, you have not received an update from your school official about your accommodations request, please contact them directly.

Approved for special testing? Make arrangements to test!

You are responsible for working with your school official to make arrangements to test within the special testing window. Students approved for special testing usually test at their own school. If your high school cannot administer the test, contact 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 as soon as possible.

Print your admission ticket.

Be sure to upload your photo (if you have not already done so) and review your admission ticket to ensure your registration shows your accommodations. If you are testing at a national test center, check your testing location. In some cases, we may need to change your testing location to provide your accommodations.

Additional Resources

Based on your approved accommodations, 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 will place you in either National or Special Testing.

Some accommodations (e.g., time and one-half single session testing) and all EL supports, may be administered at national test centers. If you are approved to test at a national test center you will see an 鈥淎ccommodations鈥 label on your admission ticket once accommodations and/or English Learner Supports are approved by 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播, and your seat at a national test center is confirmed in the applicable room type (e.g., Extended Time, single room).

Back to Top

If your approved accommodations cannot be provided at a national test center (e.g., multiple-day testing) you and the school official will work together to make arrangements for testing within the applicable special testing window. If you are approved to test via special testing you will see a 鈥淪pecial Testing鈥 label on your admission ticket once accommodations and/or English Learner Supports are approved. If your school is unable to administer the test, you may find another school and work with 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 to request testing at this location. Contact 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 to request a Test Location Change Form.

If you are approved for multiple accommodations, you will receive the accommodations that provide the most amount of time and support. If you wish to use fewer or no accommodations when testing, please  more than one week before your test date.

If you were not approved for accommodations but still wish to test,  as soon as possible to update your registration to test without accommodations. Please note that your preferred test center may not be available.

Back to Top

We do our best to minimize the impact to your test experience and provide your approved accommodations. This may result in changes to your test format or test option. Your test accommodations are not approved until after you are able to print your admission ticket. If your accommodations are approved for a national test center, 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 reviews your registration against available capacity and may update your test location to a nearby test center that can support your accommodations. Please be sure to review the information on your admission ticket and confirm your testing location.

Writing test changes - If you are approved for accommodations that are only for the writing section and you are not registered for the writing test, you will be moved to a National testing center.

Test format changes 鈥 If you are approved for accommodations that do not depend on a particular test format, changes to your test format may occur to provide your approved accommodations.

Note: We are rolling out the online testing format at limited locations for the remaining 2023-2024 test dates and will be supporting online Special testing through locations participating in National testing only.
