Is SAT accepted outside the US?

While the SAT is primarily associated with US college admissions, its acceptance outside the US varies greatly depending on the specific country and university.

Many universities in Canada, the UK, Australia, and other English-speaking countries may accept the SAT, especially from international applicants. However, it's often not the *preferred* test; the ACT is sometimes preferred, or they may give equal weight to the SAT and other standardized tests like the TOEFL (for English proficiency) or the International Baccalaureate (IB). Some universities may even prefer their own entrance exams.

Universities in non-English speaking countries are much less likely to require or even accept the SAT.

Therefore, the answer is: sometimes. It's crucial for prospective students to check the specific admission requirements of each university they are applying to, as the acceptance of the SAT is not universal. The university's website is the best source of this information.
