The Bigger Picture
You aren't a number. Your application isn't treated like one.
Every application is reviewed holistically by a diverse and experienced group of faculty, staff, and leadership to ensure equity and impartiality.
Standardized test scores are among many factors we consider when reviewing applications. Admissions Review Committee members also carefully examine high school transcripts, letters of recommendation, and essays to evaluate your accomplishments, maturity, and demonstrated commitment to academics.
GSSM's Admissions Review Committee members are committed to rendering the most informed admission decisions guided by a holistic review that considers applicants' backgrounds and experiences.
Standardized Tests are strongly recommended for the 2024 -2025 Application Cycle
Applicants to GSSM's Residential Program may submit PSAT, Pre-ACT, SAT or ACT scores for consideration. Scores taken since January 2024 will be considered. For students who submit standardized test score reports, the Admissions Committee will consider them when reviewing an application. Students who do not submit test scores will be required to complete a GSSM math admissions test. Test scores are but one factor reviewed for admission, and will not eliminate a student from further consideration.
