<ul type="disc">
<li style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Program Selection:</span></strong> Choose “OK State Regents for Higher Ed Fall 2024 - Grade 10 only.” Selecting the wrong program will result in your district being billed.<o:p></o:p></li><li style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Order Quantity:</span></strong> Only order for the number of sophomores you have. ACT will calculate an overage, so you do not need to order extra.<o:p></o:p></li><li style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Accommodations:</span></strong> Determine if any students require accommodations such as read-aloud, Braille, human reader (Reader’s Script), or large print.<o:p></o:p></li><li style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Shipping Address:</span></strong> Use a physical address, not a PO Box, as FedEx does not deliver to PO Boxes.<o:p></o:p></li><li style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Shipping Options:</span></strong> Do not select priority or overnight shipping to avoid additional charges.<o:p></o:p></li><li style="mso-list:l0 level1 lfo1"><strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Order Confirmation:</span></strong> Ensure you click "…Terms and Conditions…" and "Place Order" at the end of the ordering process.

<ul type="disc">
<li style="mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2"><strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Inventory Check:</span></strong> When your order arrives, promptly open the box to perform a quick inventory check. Answer documents are shipped separately; do not discard
the answer document box. You will use it to return the documents to ACT for scoring.<o:p></o:p></li><li style="mso-list:l1 level1 lfo2"><strong><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Track Returns:</span></strong> Before sending the answer documents back, take a picture of your tracking number.<o:p></o:p></li></ul>
