It is designed for students who qualify for an ACT test fee waiver based on economic need criteria. The form requires verification and signatures from both the student and an authorized high school official to confirm that paying the application fee would constitute a financial hardship. It outlines clear instructions for both high school officials and students to ensure appropriate submission to target universities. The form explicitly notes that individual institutions retain the discretion to accept or decline the waiver or deferral request and clarifies that this document is not intended for requesting ACT test fee waivers. By formalizing the documentation of economic status, it serves as a standardized bridge between high school counselors and college admissions departments to promote equitable access to higher education opportunities for economically disadvantaged applicants.",{"@graph":14,"@context":73},[15,34,56],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/exam/","Exam",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/request-for-waiver-or-deferral-college-admission-application-fee/530027/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/request-for-waiver-or-deferral-college-admission-application-fee/530027.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":42,"@type":43},"CatatanPagi","Person",{"url":19,"name":45,"@type":46},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-11-09","2026-10-09",true,{"@type":52,"interactionType":53,"userInteractionCount":55},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":54},"ViewAction",6,{"@type":57,"mainEntity":58},"FAQPage",[59,65,69],{"name":60,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":62},"Who
