Just double checking that the social security number is not mandatory to fill out for the SAT–thank you!
It is optional. Son left his blank.
we left it blank
Why leave it blank?
@marvin100 – identify theft fears.
Applicants do not need to provide SSN when applying to college unless applying for financial aid.
Ah. Sounds paranoid to me, but hey, diff strokes/floating boats, etc.
I am in the ‘better safe than sorry’ camp, as I have had three friends suffer through the hassle of unwinding after identify theft. Since there is no need to provide the info, why do so?
