How much does it cost to take the SAT?Answered
I know these tests cost money and I should take it this year. I鈥檓 from a single parent home and my mom doesn鈥檛 make a lot of money. I鈥檓 concerned I won鈥檛 be able to afford it, especially if I have to take it a few times?

Here are the costs for 2020, but it sounds like you could qualify for a fee waiver, which would save you a lot of money!!
$49.50 - SAT without the optional Essay portion
$64.50 - SAT with the Essay
$30 - Late fee and change fee (so make sure you register before the deadline, which is usually 1 month before the test!)
$12 - To send your scores to a college (but the first 4 colleges are free)
Here's where I got my information:

Fee waivers -
I got a fee waiver by talking to my school counselor and it really helped reduce the burden on my family when I took the SAT. Covers basically all the costs. Here鈥檚 the website:
It costs an average of $70, but I can't remember exactly. You can always apply for a fee waiver if you can't afford it, just talk to your guidance counselor.
