It is never too late.
You can sign up for the SAT at www.collegeboard.com. They also have a practice test online. Once you get your scores, you can apply to college. You will probably not be in time for fall semester, but if you get started now, you might be able to make the line for spring semester.

It's NEVER too late to go to college! Take the SAT or ACT as soon as you can, and get started! Or, contact some schools you're interested in, and often it's not even a requirement to have an SAT/ACT score. Just tell them your GPA, and you will probably be ok. Just to be on the safe side, if your GPA is a little low, go ahead and take the SAT or ACT, depending on what school you're interested in. The south tends to favor the ACT, while the northern and western colleges lean towards the SAT. Good luck!!

No it isn't to late, it may take a semester but you can go to college. Call the admisstration at the college you want to attend and ask them. They can tell you what you need to do and when tests are so you can attend. It maybe to late, for the Fall semester, but colleges enroll in spring, summer, and fall for different classes you will have to look into your college choice and ask what they require.

It's probably too late to start fall semester for 2007, even at your local community college (although it is worth checking if you want to go right away, and you could almost definitely start taking classes in January). But you're certainly not too old to go to college.

Hey, I graduated in 05 and didn't take the SAT/ ACT either. I applied to a university, and they just told me to take the ACT residual. It is a version of the ACT that is only good for the school you are applying to. I took it at the school, and got in. You can do the same, gl.

Of course it's not too late to go. The only problem you would have is if you know the material covered on the test. You would have to make sure you study good for it because it has some difficulty. Just make sure you're ready, and you'll be all set. :D

My brother dropped out of college after one year (when he went directly after HS) and didn't go back until he was 24. He graduated at age 29. 20 is definitely not too late.

Nooooo it's not too late! Look up the SAT website for their test dates and sign up.
