I'm a senior this year. Took PSAT iin 2009 and made the commended scholar cut-off with a 205. Now I want to put this down in my college application, but not sure how to fill in the "date" field. Should I put Sep 2009 when I took the test, or the date I heard the news now, i.e. Oct 2009?

I think you mean that you took the test in Sept. (October more likely) 2008, a year ago. Colleges will know perfectly well when you took the test--it´s always fall of junior year--to obtain that status, so you could just say 2009, when it´s announced.
