College Board-Approved Word-for-Word Glossaries for the SAT® Suite of Assessments In an effort to make the SAT Suite of Assessments more accessible for all students, English Learner (EL) students will have access to approved word-for-word dictionaries/bilingual glossaries. The following list of dictionaries or glossaries have been reviewed and approved for use by the College Board for the SAT, PSAT™ 10, and PSAT™ 8/9 assessments in Spring 2018. Schools may allow students to use any one of these supports during their testing. The use does not require a pre-approval from College Board and will result in scholarship and/or college-reportable scores. We recommend students be familiar with the dictionary or glossary in advance of testing. However, students will not be able to bring them on test day. School staff must plan to collect the books in advance of test day so they can check them for any writing and/or inserts that are inappropriate. On test day, the supervisor will distribute the books to students with their test materials and collect them after testing. | Dictionary/Glossary | ISBN | | --- | --- | | Albanian Word-to-Word® Bilingual Dictionary
