But is it possible to just get the large print tests? He's at a private so no IEP (they have a similar version but it's not called an IEP and does not specifically mention large text because it's a pretty generic document and they have easy access to audio/online books for all classes). Do you think schools are sent some?

No. If it was not an accommodation submitted to and approved by the college board you cannot just get it day of. They are strict.

No, unless it is approved as an accommodation.

You are not permitted to bring food or drink, including bottled water, into the exam room (unless approved as an accommodation by College Board’s Services for Students with Disabilities office). During the 10-minute break between Sections 1 and 2 of the exam, with the proctor’s permission, you can leave the exam room to get a drink of water or a snack.

Thank you for this. DS claims he can bring food in, but I was giving him a dubious look.
