Can my child take the STAR test while living abroad, or do we need to travel to the United States?

The STAR Assessments are flexible and can usually be administered internationally, so your child does not need to fly to the U.S. to take them. STAR tests are computer-adaptive, meaning they adjust in difficulty based on your child’s answers, and they are designed for use in schools, hybrid learning, or even remote setups. If you are living abroad, such as in Luxembourg, the main factor is not location but whether the school or institution requiring the scores accepts remotely administered or internationally proctored STAR exams. Many schools do, but it is always wise to confirm their policies before scheduling.
