High School Placement Test
Every applicant is required to take the High School Placement Test (HSPT) to be considered for admission to Notre Dame High School. It is a standardized test that Catholic high schools in the San Jose Diocese uses when considering applicants. The test is administered on high school campuses, can only be taken once, and no calculators are allowed.
We strongly encourage students to take the test on our campus if Notre Dame is their first choice school. Students who do not test on our campus, but send us their HSPT scores, will still be considered.
Notre Dame will offer the test on our campus on January 11 & 25, 2020. The test begins at 9am on each day. Please contact Kaitlyn Stauber with questions or concerns.
