When Should I Take The ACT? New Summer Test Date Added In July 2018

High school students planning ahead for next year's college applications might want to circle July in their calendars. The makers of the ACT announced Tuesday that they're adding an extra test date starting in July 2018 — a departure from their tradition of only giving the entrance exam during the school year, according to a news release.
Students will now have seven chances each year to take the ACT.
