SSAT Registration Guide 2026–27
How registration works
Every SSAT test date runs the same three-week approach. Read it once and it applies to all five dates below.
Final 21 days before any paper SSAT · earlier ← → test day
Accommodations run on a separate clock. Approval must be granted before you register, registration with accommodations closes 14 days out, and approval itself takes at least two weeks after a complete application.
Standard dates and what runs in Korea
Korea runs paper testing only, on five dates. There is no March sitting.
E3n offers the Standard paper SSAT on six Saturdays in the U.S. and Canada, four elsewhere, and five in China, and not every centre supports every date. March 13, 2027 is not offered in Korea, so it cannot serve as a final fallback. The last sitting available in Korea is January 30, 2027.

Korean test centres: Seoul H521 (Gyeonggi-do) · Busan H522 (Gimhae) · Jeju H523. Based on the test centre search as of August 5, 2026; the dates each centre runs can change.
On test day
The venue can change right up to the test date, so always check the location printed on your Admission Ticket. Entry requires the original valid passport — a photo or photocopy will not be accepted at the test centre.
Computer-based options
Neither computer-based option runs in Korea for 2026–27.
Prometric centre testing and SSAT at Home are both unavailable in Korea this season. Korea runs paper testing only.
Testing abroad — SSAT at Home is limited to the U.S., U.S. territories, and Canada and closes 72 hours before the test; Prometric is booked through its own system, where seat availability is the real deadline.
About school codes
You can leave the school code section blank until your list is final
Any school you list receives the score report automatically, so if your school list is not settled yet, leave the section empty.
You can send the score report to schools later
Viewing and sending score reports is free. It is covered by the registration fee: there is no extra charge to view the report in your parent account or to send it to schools and educational consultants, and there is no limit on how many schools you send it to.
Verify every date yourself before you register
Test dates, deadlines, fees, and centres change without notice. Do not fix a plan on the strength of this document alone. SSAT → admission.org / ssat.org
