The 2026–27 SAT calendar

College Board publishes one international calendar that covers Lebanon along with every other country outside the United States. You are not choosing from a separate Lebanese schedule — the dates below are the same ones students see in Amman, Dubai or Cairo.

Every SAT is a Saturday test. Sunday administrations exist for students who cannot test on a Saturday for religious reasons; they fall on the day immediately after the Saturday date and are requested during registration.

What is not guaranteed is that a center near you will be open on any given date. The calendar tells you when the test is offered worldwide; only the test center search tells you whether there is a seat for you on that date.

Always confirm before you plan around a date. Test dates, deadlines and score release dates are set by College Board and can change.

How registration deadlines work

Each test date has two deadlines, and the gap between them is roughly four days.

The regular deadline

This is the one to aim for. Register on or before it and you pay the standard fee. It falls about two and a half weeks before the test date.

The late deadline

Miss the regular deadline and you can still register up to the late deadline, but College Board adds a $38 late fee. Late registration is also the worst time to be choosing a test center, because the seats that remain are the ones nobody wanted.

There is no standby testing

Once the late deadline passes, that administration is closed. You cannot turn up on the day hoping for a seat. If you miss both deadlines your next option is the following test date, which on this calendar can be two or three months away.

Changing your mind costs money. There is no simple reschedule. Moving to a different test date means cancelling your registration and registering again. Changing only your test center, keeping the same date, is a separate fee. The exact amounts are on the SAT fees breakdown.

Choosing the right date

Most students pick a date by looking at a calendar and choosing the one that feels far enough away. Work backwards from your deadlines instead.

Start from your application deadline, not your test date

Scores arrive roughly two weeks after the test, and the release date for each administration is in the table above. A score that lands after a university deadline is worth nothing, so identify the last date whose scores still arrive in time — then treat everything earlier as your real range.

Leave room for a second attempt

Very few students sit the SAT once and stop. If you plan to retake, you need two dates inside your window, plus the weeks between them to actually fix what went wrong. Picking the latest possible date removes that option entirely.

Look at your school year, not just the SAT calendar

A test date that sits in the middle of school exams is a test date you will not prepare properly for. The December and March administrations tend to cause the most collisions for students in Lebanon, so check your school calendar before you register rather than after.

Register early for the date you want

Registering early costs nothing extra and gets you a better choice of center. Waiting achieves the opposite: a late fee, and whatever seat is left.

Preparing for the SAT from Lebanon

Knowing the dates and the rules is the easy part. The harder question is what to do with the months in between. SAT with Majd runs live Digital SAT preparation for students across Lebanon — structured lessons, homework built around the mistakes you actually make, and full practice tests. Sessions are online, so there is no center to travel to. Week 1 is free, with no payment or commitment.

Common questions

How many times a year can I sit the SAT in Lebanon?

The 2026–27 international calendar offers seven remaining administrations between September 2026 and June 2027. How many you can actually sit depends on seat availability at centers near you, since not every center opens for every date.

When is the next SAT test date?

The next dates on the 2026–27 international calendar are listed in the table on this page, along with their registration deadlines. Because dates and deadlines can change, confirm against College Board's official SAT dates and deadlines page before registering.

How long after the SAT do scores come out?

Scores are released to students roughly two weeks after the test date. The exact release date for each administration is listed in the calendar table on this page.

What happens if I miss the registration deadline?

You can still register up to the late deadline, about four days later, but College Board charges a $38 late fee. After the late deadline that administration closes completely, and standby testing is not offered for the Digital SAT.

Can I change my SAT test date after registering?

There is no direct reschedule. To move to a different date you cancel your existing registration and register again for the new one, and both a cancellation fee and the new registration fee apply. Changing only your test center while keeping the same date is a separate, smaller fee.

Is the SAT in Lebanon on the same dates as everywhere else?

Yes. College Board publishes a single international calendar that applies to Lebanon and all other countries outside the United States. What varies by country is not the date but which test centers open and how many seats they offer.
