Students are
required to take the ACT or SAT for admission into college. All Wisconsin school
accept the ACT. Some schools on the east or west coast may require the SAT over
the ACT. Registration packets are available in the Guidance office or you can
register online at www.act.org/
for the ACT or www.collegeboard.com
for the SAT. When students register for the ACT, they will be asked to register
either for the ACT or the ACT plus writing. At this time, the only schools in
Wisconsin that are requiring the writing portion are U.W. Madison and Marquette.
Look on the act website if you are looking at schools outside of Wisconsin to
see if the writing test is required. Be sure to include the high school code:
501-188 to ensure that your results get sent to Roncalli. You can get your
results sent to up to 6 colleges at no cost.
