At Themba Tutors, we specialize in providing expert learning specialists and tutors for SHSAT with the skills and expertise needed to help you succeed.
2023 SHSAT Registration
All New York City residents who are currently in eighth grade or are entering ninth grade for the first time may take the SHSAT. The SHSAT is given only once every year, usually in late October for eighth graders and early to mid-November for ninth pupils.
How Do I Sign Up For The SHSAT Exam?
Logging into your MySchools account is required in order to register for the SHSAT. You can open an account if you don’t already have one.
You will have the choice to order your preferences for the specialized high schools after logging into your account. Make sure you are ranking colleges in the order you would actually want to attend them by giving it some thought.
You will get a unique test ticket with information on the time and location of the test about two weeks following the registration deadline.
Your school counselor can also help you sign up for the SHSAT.
