Students who are interested in taking the ACT should visit www.act.org for more information and to register. Students will not register for the state-sponsored ACT on their own (more information below).
In recent years, many colleges and universities became "test optional," meaning students are not always required to submit ACT scores for college admission. Many competitive colleges and universities have reinstated this requirement and are again requiring ACT scores for admission consideration. Please check the college or university where you are applying in order to determine if ACT scores are required with your application.
Students must request that their scores are sent directly from ACT to the college or university where they are applying. Students can request to send their scores at www.act.org. The SHS Counseling Department does not send ACT scores to colleges or universities on the students' behalf.
2027 State-Funded ACT Information

All Springboro High School juniors (including those attending the Warren County Career Center) will take the state-funded ACT on Tuesday, March 9, 2027 in person at SHS. This test administration is funded by the state of Ohio and offered at no cost to students and families. Students will NOT register for the state-funded ACT on their own.
