The Independent School Entrance Examination (ISEE) is a three-hour admission test for entrance into grades five through twelve. The ISEE has three levels: a Lower Level for students currently in grades four and five who are candidates for admission to grades five and six, a Middle Level for students in grades six and seven who are candidates for admission to grades seven and eight, and an Upper Level for students in grades eight to eleven who are candidates for admission to grades nine through twelve.
Q: How much is the test?
A: The online or mail-in registration fee for the ISEE is $78. There is an additional charge of $20 for phone or fax registration.
Q: Are walk-in tests available?
A: Yes, walk-in registration is available at a limited number of test sites and dates. Walk-in registration is on a first-come, first-served basis and cannot be assured due to limitations on test materials and staff. There is an additional $30 fee for this service. If you are a candidate for walk-in registration, you must call the test site directly to see if you can be accommodated. If so, you must bring the following to the test site:
• a completed Registration Form. • the test fee plus the additional $30 (check, Visa, MasterCard or American Express).
Note: Test site supervisors will not accept cash and scoring will be delayed if your Registration Form has not been properly completed. Allow two extra working days for score reports and telephone reports.
Q: Can I make changes to my registration?
A: Yes, contact the Operations Office at 1-800-446-0320 immediately to make any changes to your submitted form. Some changes, such as rescheduling a test date, may result in additional fees. Check the ISEE Student Guide for more complete information.
Q: Where is the test offered?
A: The test is offered in over thirty metropolitan areas across the country. The list of testing dates and locations is found in the ISEE Student Guide available through the school to which the student is applying or online.
