American College Test (ACT) – Residual

GENERAL INFORMATION:

The Residual ACT (ACT-R) is an institutional administration of the National ACT given to prospective Arkansas Tech students who have been in school during the previous three (3) years.  These tests are graded by Arkansas Tech in accordance with the procedures set forth by ACT, and scores will be available by 9:00 a.m. on the day after the test.  Do not forget to bring a picture ID with you on the day that you test.

 COST:

1 or more sections:  $30.00 (exact cash only, no checks)

* Students who cancel or are absent for their scheduled date without providing at least 24 hours notice will forfeit their testing deposit.

TESTING SCHEDULE:

The Residual ACT is given at 8:00 a.m. several times during each academic school year.  Students should arrive at the testing center by 7:50 a.m.  See the following page for test dates for this academic school year.

 REGISTRATION:

Students must come by the office and pay $30.00 in cash in order to register for a test date.  If the student lives out of the area, it is acceptable to fax information and send in a money order.  Students must also complete the test registration before coming to the office.

 SCORES:

Residual ACT scores are good for Arkansas Tech ONLY and will not transfer to any other college or university.  Any student who plans to transfer from Tech should take the national ACT and not the Residual ACT.

 WAIT TIME BETWEEN TESTS:

Students who take the R-ACT must wait a minimum of 60 days before they can take it again.

 STUDY GUIDES/ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

A sample ACT test is available in each National ACT registration packet.  If a student would like additional study aids, direct him/her to the library or his/her nearest bookstore.  For additional information about ACT, direct students to visit the ACT website:  www.act.org
