HSPT
The HSPT is required for early-decision consideration on January 21, 2027, at 4 p.m. EST. Students who have not taken the HSPT may still be considered for admission after the early-decision date.
It is one test, taken once, on one of three Saturdays. St. Mary’s uses the score for admission and for scholarship consideration. There is no second sitting to raise the number.
Choose the Saturday your child will be rested — not the first date on the list.
Award amounts and score thresholds live on Tuition & Aid.
