Special Notes

• ACT will allow for some accommodations for the Residual ACT without contacting ACT, but it is recommended that students contact ACT for Request for ACT Assessment Special Testing at 319/337-1332. Proper documentation of the disability must be presented before testing.
• Scores for the Residual ACT will be available the next business day at 8:00 a.m. unless there are unforeseen technical difficulties. Students may come by in person with a photo id to obtain a copy of their scores or can complete the mailing request the day of the test. No one but the student can receive the score report and no one will receive their score report over the phone.
  
• Residual testing is not accepted for NCAA initial eligibility.
• If a student has taken the ACT Assessment through Residual (on-campus) or any other non-national testing (e.g., DANTES, Project, or Special), the retest should be taken on a national test date.  If this is not possible, a second non-national testing may be taken but only after a minimum of 60 days has elapsed since the first testing.  If the 60-day time limit is violated, the retest scores will be cancelled automatically.  No refund will be made for such cancelled scores.
• You may reschedule your test date once. If you do not take the Residual ACT on the rescheduled date, you will forfeit your registration fee. Registration fee is good for the testing year (November until October). No refunds will be given.
