Once exam setup is complete, Bluebook displays your SAT admission ticket. You can:

  • Take screenshot or photo of it
  • Print it out
  • Email it to yourself for easy access

The digital SAT admission ticket is generated inside the Bluebook app, not on the College Board website. Sign in to Bluebook using your College Board account email and password. Then complete the exam setup process. The SAT admission ticket is created automatically at the end of this setup.
