• Scholastic High School Placement Test (HSPT)
  As part of the admissions process, all 8th graders applying to SLUH will be required to take the Scholastic Testing Service's High School Placement Test (HSPT). We will offer this test on two dates:
  
  - Saturday, December 8, 2018, from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon
  - Saturday, January 5, 2019, from 8:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon
  
  The HSPT is a comprehensive test for 8th graders that provides national normative measures in the following cognitive and basic skills areas: verbal and quantitative skills, reading, mathematics, and language. The HSPT creates a baseline for the young men who attend our school as we witness their progress during their four years at SLUH.
  
• Decision Letters
  We will mail all letters in early February, 2019 (date to be determined by St. Louis Archdiocese). You will also be able to view your letter on your SLUH Admissions Account so make sure to save your username and password.
