Read the full agreement when creating a family account with The Enrollment Management Association.

Are students, parents/guardians, and staff members required to wear masks or take other precautions?

Regulations and guidelines intended to reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19 vary greatly by region.

How do I get the latest information about this issue, or any up-to-date information?

We encourage test takers and their families to bookmark and monitor this EMA alerts page for the most up-to-date information as it relates to the SSAT.

What is EMA doing to monitor the situation?

We are continually and carefully monitoring guidance and advisories issued by health authorities.

What if my child has a simple cold? Will he or she be turned away from an operating test center?

Yes, it is possible.

What happens if students are unable to test in time to meet their application deadlines?

Application deadlines and requirements are determined by each individual school. As such, any questions specifically related to deadlines should be directed to the school in which a student is applying. However, given the nature of this evolving global health situation, EMA encourages schools to monitor international and national advisories from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO) regarding the pandemic and to communicate clearly and proactively with families regarding any changes in admission requirements. The EMA membership team is available to assist schools in determining their plan of action for impacted students.

Will parents/guardians need to do anything prior to testing related to COVID for in person testing?

Yes. Prior to any in-person test registration, a parent/guardian will need to read, complete, and submit a COVID declaration.
