Villa Maria will administer the High School Placement Test (HSPT) as our Entrance-Scholarship Exam on Saturday, September 23 (registration closed) and Sunday, October 15. 

If you are not able to join us, we do accept HSPT scores taken at other schools. Beginning Fall of 2023, prospective students submitting HSPT scores from Villa Maria OR another high school are eligible for scholarship consideration. 

Scores taken at a parochial/grade school may be submitted for admission only.

Please note: The HSPT is an important indication of future academic success at Villa Maria. For accepted students, the HSPT score will be used by our departments to inform placement.
