Creating an Account with College Board
Follow this link to create your College Board account - you will use this same account to access scores for all exams
(PSAT/NMSQT, AP, SAT) and register for SAT exams.
When registering, use a personal email address. DO NOT use your school email address b/c once you graduate, you will not have access to the school email.
If you already have an account - you will still need the Access Code to access score reports.
Call PSAT/NMSQT Student Line for help with access: 1-866-433-7728
(No one at the school can help you with your College Board account)
*INCORRECT INFORMATION ON COLLEGE BOARD ACCOUNT: If a student provided incorrect demographic information in their CollegeBoard account; Name, Date of Birth, School, etc..., they may have a problem accessing their online score report.
*Students must use their legal names when creating College Board accounts. Dropping the 2nd last name can cause score delay or no access to your scores.
PLEASE CALL 1-866-433-7728 to correct any errors. School personnel cannot fix errors created on College Board exams.*
