When Can Students See Their PSAT Scores?

Freshman, sophomore and junior families received an email from the school Tuesday with information on viewing results from Preliminary SAT (PSAT) testing that took place in October and November. Scores will be available beginning Monday for sophomores and juniors who took the PSAT exam in October. Meanwhile, freshmen who completed the PSAT 8/9 in November can access their scores now.

To view their PSAT scores, students must have a free account with the College Board. Most students who took the PSAT created College Board accounts earlier this semester. They can use this link to sign in. Students who do not have a College Board account can create one here.

Students who provided an email address when taking the PSAT will receive a notification from the College Board that includes an access code. When logging in, students may need the access code to see their scores. Students who need help in obtaining their PSAT access code can email SHS_testing@d125.org or go to Room 6000 and see Ms. Lukas.

Michigan State senior safety Matt Morrissey (Class of 2014) made the team for the third straight season.
