THIS IS FOR THE COLLEGEBOARD SAT NOT THE STANFORD OFFERED AT CBC

SAT Fee Waivers
If you’re eligible for a fee waiver, you can take the SAT or SAT Subject Tests for free — and apply free to four colleges.
SAT fee waivers are available to low-income 11th and 12th grade students in the U.S. or U.S. territories and U.S. citizens living outside the U.S. may be able to have test fees waived. SAT Subject Test fee waivers are available for students in grades nine through 12.

You’re eligible for fee waivers if you say “yes” to any of these items:

*You’re enrolled in or eligible to participate in the National School Lunch Program (NSLP).
*Your annual family income falls within the Income Eligibility Guidelines set by the USDA Food and Nutrition Service.
*You’re enrolled in a federal, state, or local program that aids students from low-income families (e.g., Federal TRIO programs such as Upward Bound).
*Your family receives public assistance.
*You live in federally subsidized public housing or a foster home, or are homeless.
*You are a ward of the state or an orphan.
What Fee Waivers Cover:
~The registration fee for up to two SATs, with or without the SAT Essay
~The registration fee for up to two SAT Subject Test administrations (take up to three individual SAT Subject Tests taken on a single test day)
~Four limited-time score reports plus four to use at any time (see details below)
~Four college application fee waivers
~Question-and-Answer Service (QAS) or Student Answer Service (SAS) if ordered at the time of registration (QAS and SAS aren’t available for SAT Subject Tests)
~A fee reduction for multiple-choice score verification or essay score verification
~Coverage of the SAT Essay if you are an SAT School Day tester whose school or district covers only the SAT but supports essay testing
~Coverage of the non-U.S. regional fee for fee-waiver-eligible U.S. students who are testing abroad
~Note: If you didn’t register to take the SAT with Essay, but change your mind on test day — and materials are available at your test center — the waiver’s got you covered.

What Fee Waiver’s Don’t Cover
Fee waivers can’t be used if you miss the registration deadline and get on the waitlist.

They don’t cover fees for changing your registration. There’s no fee if you change your mind about taking the SAT with Essay.

Apply to Colleges — For Free
It’s worth repeating: Every student who uses an SAT fee waiver gets four college application fee waivers too.

How to Get a Fee Waiver
Your school counselor or a representative of an authorized community-based organization will help you get a fee waiver.

If you’re home-schooled, you can get fee waivers by contacting a local high school counselor. Just provide proof of eligibility, such as tax records or proof of enrollment in an aid program like those listed above.

How to Register with a Fee Waiver
If you’re registering online, enter the following information:

The 12-digit code (each code is good for one registration only)
The name of a high-school counselor or another authorized person
The way you qualified for the waiver
If you’re registering by mail, send the fee-waiver card that includes this information along with your paper registration form. Incomplete cards or forms will be mailed back to you unprocessed.

If you’re testing in the United States or U.S. territories, you can use a fee waiver during the late registration period.

Additional Score Reports
Every SAT or SAT Subject Test registration covers four score reports, as long as you specify them by the date indicated on your Admission Ticket (usually nine days after your test date).

If you are eligible for a fee waiver, however, you get four additional score reports to use at any time during high school. No matter how many times you register with a fee waiver (or even if you didn’t use a fee waiver to register) you are entitled to the four reports.

To use the flexible score reports, sign in to your free College Board account. The number of score reports still available to you will appear automatically if you have registered using a fee waiver. If you have not previously registered with a fee waiver, indicate that you are eligible and enter the 12-digit code from the bottom of your fee-waiver card. You can also order score reports by phone or paper; before ordering, you can find out how many credits you have left through your My Organizer account or by calling Customer Service.

As I have been meeting to encourage and help homeschool families, I sense that there are many who need encouragement in the homeschool journey. This post came in my e-mail this morn and I must confess, self-condemnation is a sin that I have asked the Lord to root out of my own life. On the flip side, one of my love languages is “words of affirmation,” so the combo can really trip me up sometimes! This article and podcast is a great reminder and encouragement to all who struggle with comparing themselves to others! It is for freedom that Christ has set us free…don’t be subject again to a yoke of slavery. You can read the short article, “Happiness Comes From Liking Yourself: Living Beyond Self-condemnation” at http://sallyclarkson.com/blog/

Blessings to you with joy in the Lord,

Was was wondering if anyone knows of or owns their own carpet cleaning business. We will be needing our carpets cleaned professionally before we move out of our rental. Also looking for someone who can install a dishwasher.

Thanks in advance!

Do you have a child struggling to read? Is the thought of another test to fail have your stomach in knots? Don’t forget that CBCCA has an alternative to the PASS or Stanford Test, the Brigance Test. This is especially geared toward struggling or non-traditional learners and is a great alternative to assess students’ abilities and can help provide for clarity in discerning curriculum choices, goal setting, and school year planning. This test will be offered by CBCCA on a case by case basis in lieu of PASS or SAT tests. Please call Claudia at the office if you would like more information.

Dear friends, I have wanted to provide a home school ID for many years.  With our new database I may be able to finally do that. I can have it print out family ID badges which would include parents names and all the children along with the CBCCA logo. I would have to add data such as the current school year. I know these are helpful for discounts etc. I don’t want to have too much info on there for security reasons, but what other info do you think should be on there, if any? For example, is your address necessary? Do you want individual ones for each student??? I can upload pictures as well-provided you send them to me.

Let me know, thanks-Claudia
