How many times can I take the ISEE, SSAT, and HSPT?

Unlike standardized tests for college admissions like the SAT and ACT, which can be taken as many times as a student may want, standardized testing for private school admissions has limits. The ISEE may only be three times in a 12-month admissions cycle. Furthermore, a student may only register for the ISEE once per testing season, meaning one test each may be taken in fall, winter, and spring./summer.

The SSAT is a bit more flexible. There is no limit to the number of tests students may register for; however, they are restricted to one test per month. Additionally, the SSAT Flex Test may be scheduled in the same month as a regular SSAT, but a student may only take one Flex Test a year. 

Lastly, the HSPT. Students may only take this test once. Only with extenuating circumstances and deliberation may a student potentially be allowed to take it again. This is why we recommend thorough test preparation before taking it, as whatever score you receive will be the score you must submit to the schools to which you are applying.
