SAT Fee Waiver?

As I was looking at colleges, I noticed the one I was planning to go to is offering a scholarship that I am almost eligible for. The only downside is it requires the SAT which I did not take and I must apply by November 1st. I was planning on taking the upcoming SAT which is on October 1st but the registration deadline is in the next 3 days. I am eligible for the fee waiver but I’m wondering if it’s too late? I emailed my counselor but do you think she’ll be able to respond before the deadline? I know it’s short notice but I should at least attempt it for a chance at the scholarship. Also, is the SAT hard compared to the ACT? Because I did relatively well on the ACT.

I would see if you could visit your counselor tomorrow in the morning, during lunch, or after school. Counselor’s can be very busy and they might not be able to see your email.
