ENROLLMENT SERVICES

TESTING ACTIVITIES: THE DIVERSE NATURE OF THE ACADEMIC PROGRAMS AND STANDARDS THAT EXIST WITHIN SCHOOL PROGRAMS LIMITS THE OPPORTUNITIES TO COMPARE BASIC ACADEMIC ABILITY OF APPLICANTS TO OTHER SCHOOLS OR PROGRAMS. THE SSAT IS INTENDED TO PROVIDE A COMMON MEASURE FOR EVALUATING THE ABILITIES OF STUDENTS SEEKING ADMISSION TO PRIVATE SCHOOLS, FROM WHATEVER BACKGROUND OR EXPERIENCE, AND TO ASSESS THE POSSIBLE SUCCESS OF THESE STUDENTS. DESIGNED TO INCREASE STUDENT DIVERSITY IN PRIVATE AND INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS, EMA PROVIDES FEE WAIVERS EACH YEAR TO THOUSANDS OF STUDENTS WHOM OUR MEMBER SCHOOLS DETERMINE TO BE ELIGIBLE. THESE FEE WAIVERS ALLOW STUDENTS TO TAKE THE SSAT, USE THE EMA PRACTICE PORTAL, AND APPLY TO PRIVATE SCHOOLS. THE AGGREGATE AMOUNT OF THESE FEE WAIVERS FOR JULY 2019 WAS $42,712. A COMPREHENSIVE STUDENT WEB SITE ENSURES THAT STUDENTS AND FAMILIES CAN ACCESS INFORMATION ON ALL ASPECTS OF THE SSAT, INCLUDING TEST PREPARATION, TEST STRUCTURE AND COMPOSITION, SCORE INTERPRETATION, AND ONLINE TEST REGISTRATION. SCHOOLS ARE PROVIDED WITH THE INFORMATION AND TRAINING THEY NEED TO PROPERLY ADMINISTER THE SSAT AND TO ASSESS STUDENT SCORES. THE MISSION SKILLS ASSESSMENT (MSA) WAS DESIGNED TO MEASURE THE EFFICACY OF INDIVIDUAL SCHOOL PEDAGOGY SURROUNDING CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT AND THE FULFILLMENT OF SCHOOL MISSIONS DEVOTED TO THE NURTURING OF PARTICULAR CHARACTER TRAITS.
