High school students rejoice. Due to the coronavirus, a growing number of universities are now dropping the SAT and ACT requirement for fall 2021 admissions, including Boston University and University of California. Currently the list is about 51 universities and colleges that have removed the ACT/SAT requirement for the fall of 2021 and some are even extending the ban through the spring of 2022.
Breaking News: SAT Canceled
Due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the College Board has announced that the SAT and SAT subject tests are canceled until further notice. Makeup exams for the March 14, 2020 testing date that was then postponed until March 28, 2020 are now officially canceled. They have also canceled May 2, 2020 and June 6, 2020 testing sessions. Also eliminated are makeup tests for the originally scheduled March 25, 2020 SAT School Day administration and SAT School Day sessions on April 14, 2020 and April 28, 2020. PSAT sessions scheduled for April are canceled and will not take place this spring at all.
Students who already registered for May, whose March test centers were closed, or who do not receive March scores because of any irregularities will receive refunds. In May, students registered for June can transfer their registration to one of the fall SAT administrations for free. Students who want to cancel their SAT registration instead can get a refund by contacting their customer service.
Online Tutoring
Everyone must become part of the national effort to slow the coronavirus spread using social distancing. In the case of Y3K Tutor In Your Home, we continue to educate our students. Although during the coronavirus shutdown we are no longer to able to personally teach inside your home, we are still seeing all of our students with online tutoring. In many cases we are the ONLY educators left in that child or young adult’s life. The work of our staff is essential to those we serve. Our Y3K Tutor In Your Home tutors continue to tutor all students using FaceTime, Skype, Zoom, WhatsApp and more! Lessons are as if we are in your home sitting right next to you.

I am very happy with Y3K Tutor In Your Home who has been tutoring my child for the last 2 years. Our tutor has a pleasing and convincing way around stepping up your child’s academic areas of interest. He has shown excellent methods to help my child progress through his writing skills, organizational skills and when it comes to studying. He is easy to work with and very good at communicating with my son. Above all, accommodating the success needed for a child’s growth. My son loves his tutoring sessions. I would highly recommend our tutor from Y3K Tutor In Your Home. He’s a brilliant tutor and my child has benefited tremendously from these sessions.

Our Y3K Tutor In Your Home tutor is outstanding. He is kind, patient and warm. He has somehow managed to motivate our son, who has been absolutely disinterested in academics for almost 10 years. We highly recommend Y3K!
