    The ACT Assessment test is an admissions requirement at some colleges. The instrument consists of a battery of four academic tests that measure academic development in English, Mathematics, Reading, and Science Reasoning. The Assessment provides scores on the four tests, a composite score, and seven sub scores which provide more detailed information concerning an individual's academic development. Calculators are permitted but not required.

    The ACT examination with the Optional Writing Test will not be available at DANTES Test Centers. Examinees who are required to take the Writing Test as part of an application process must take the SAT I with the required Writing Test.

    DANTES funds one administration at a DANTES Test Center, for eligible military service members, on either the ACT Assessment or the SAT. Testing is on a continuous basis. For additional information about testing at DANTES Test Centers see your education advisor.
