How do I prepare school-managed devices for students taking SAT Weekend?

Your students can use a device managed by your school to take SAT Weekend at any test center, but they may need your help installing the Bluebook testing app or changing device settings.  

Windows laptops and tablets, Mac laptops, and iPads: If your devices are configured to allow it, students can download Bluebook themselves at bluebook.app.collegeboard.org. If not, you’ll find installation instructions at Device Readiness.

On Chromebooks: Bluebook runs in kiosk mode, so it’s available on Chromebooks only when they’re managed through the Admin console in Google Workspace. This means students can’t use take the test on a Chromebook unless you:

  • Install Bluebook.  
  • Check the network auto-connect setting and other settings and clear space.
  • Enable the floating accessibility menu for students who need it; they can’t use their custom settings in kiosk mode.
