Placement Exam

All students are required to take a placement exam as part of the enrollment process. The placement exam is used as a diagnostic tool to ensure students are placed in the appropriate section of each discipline, and to help identify areas of academic strengths and opportunities for growth. (An optional Latin placement exam is offered to students who have previously taken Latin.)

We administer the Classic Learning Test 8 as our placement exam for incoming freshmen. The placement exam covers:

  • Verbal reasoning skills

  • Grammar and writing skills

  • Quantitative reasoning skills

More information and preparing for the CLT may be found on their website. We will have two test dates. The test dates are scheduled with the location TBD.

  • November 30, 2024

  • January 11, 2025

We will also accept scores from the Archdiocese of Boston High School Placement Test (HSPT) or the Secondary School Admissions Test (SSAT) which may be uploaded with the application.

Applicants in 9th and 10th grade should plan to take the CLT10 Exam which is available online for free through college promotional offers. The next free test will be November 13th or 14th if you register by November 7th. Please visit the CLT10 website for more information.
