  • 5) TESTING

    The SSAT is optional at this time. Domestic day or boarding applicant who submits an SSAT, PSAT, SAT, ACT, or ISEE result will be considered for our Summit Scholarship.  These scholarships range from $5,000 - $30,000 per year. We highly recommend families who are seeking the Summit Scholarship apply as part of the Early Action program.
