Sat Wait List EMERGENCY

<p>Hi guys. I registered late for the SAT 3 weeks ago and I'm schedules to take the test on November 3 but I'm on wait list. </p>

<p>Now I've decided that I want to take my SAT on a later date. I'm thinking maybe since I'm wait listed, maybe I can skip the test day and still have no amount deducted from my credit card. So I emailed collegeboard and this is what they had to say</p>

<p>Please be advised that when you register for wait list, you will be charged applicable registration fees, including wait list fees, **only if* you are admitted **to the test center on test day. The credit card you submit for payment will be preauthorized $1.00 upon wait list registration. This preauthorized charge will be removed five business days after you register. **Therefore there is nothing additional that is required of you if you decide not to attend the November test.*</p>

<p>Now my question is, If I decide not to attend the November test, will there be any charge deducted from my credit card?
If so, how much is it? Am I only gonna be charged $1(preauthorized charge)?</p>

<p>I emailed collegeboard over and over but they kept giving me the exact same reply everytime.</p>

<p>The email is fairly self-explanatory. No, you won’t be charged. Except probably the $1 as ‘This preauthorized charge will be removed five business days after you register’.</p>

<p>Yes I know but what confuses me is it says IF I get admitted in the test centre, I won’t be charged anything. It didn’t say if I didn’t attend.</p>

<p>The only thing they mentioned about what will happen is if I don’t attend, is that there won’t be anything “additional” required of me. That word makes me think that there will be something else I have to pay.</p>

<p>No, it says if you get admitted, you will be charged.</p>

<p>If you don’t show up, you won’t get admitted, so you won’t be charged.</p>

<p>allyphoe is correct.</p>

<p>And the $1 charge was just to verify the validity of your credit card. That should have already been credited back to you. So . . . total cost = $0</p>

<p>how can i register for SAT waitlist?</p>

<p>what are my chances of getting a seat if im on the waitlist?</p>
