Testing Policy: 6th-11th Grade ISEE & SSAT Testing Information (Optional)
The Admission Committee considers all aspects of a candidate’s admission profile. Since testing is only one of the factors that predicts a student’s academic potential, Sierra Canyon will continue a testing-optional policy for the 2025-2026 admission cycle. Students who choose not to submit scores will not have any disadvantage in our admission process.
For students who choose to submit the Independent School Entrance Exam (ISEE) or Secondary School Admission Test (SSAT) test scores, score reports must be submitted by February 1, 2025.
ISEE Exam Information – Sierra Canyon School’s code is 054121. Applicants who choose to pursue admission testing may take the ISEE at any location, format, and date before the above deadline. Additional information about testing is available on the ISEE website: ISEEtest.org.
SSAT Testing – Students may take the SSAT at any location, format, and date before the above deadline. Additional information is available on the SSAT website: SSAT.org. Please indicate that the results be sent to Sierra Canyon.
*Applicants are required to submit all standardized testing that has been administered at their respective schools for the current school year and previous two years. For some applicants, this may only consist of one state test result. All testing on file at applicants’ schools are required to accompany official transcripts. This includes PSAT, ACT, and SAT scores as applicable to candidates to the upper grade levels.
Essay Questions: Parent and Student Statements are available on two portals.
You may apply directly using the Sierra Canyon Application or the Standard Application Online (SAO). Both are evaluated equally.
