All deadlines expire at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time, so international students should be especially careful with the time-zone difference. For students in India, waiting until the “last day” can easily become confusing because the deadline follows the U.S. Eastern Time, not Indian Standard Time.
SAT Exam Fees in India 2026–27
For students taking the SAT in India, the registration fee includes the standard SAT fee and an additional international fee.
The current fee structure, applicable through June 2027, is as follows:
