Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test (PSAT/NMSQT)

PSAT

We are excited to announce that Glendale High School will be offering the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test (PSAT/NMSQT) to all sophomores during the fall semester of the 2026–2027 school year! The PSAT is a fantastic opportunity for students to experience a test similar in format to the SAT, helping them sharpen their skills and gain insight into their academic strengths.

Why Take the PSAT?

  • It provides a meaningful practice experience for the SAT.

  • Students receive a detailed score report highlighting their strengths and areas for growth.

  • Scores are only reported to students and parents—not sent to colleges—making it a low-pressure way to prepare for future testing.

Registration and Payment Details

The $18 PSAT/NMSQT fee must be paid by Friday, September 25, 2026. Payment can be made using cash, check, or credit/debit card.

  • Student Store: Students may pay in person during snack or lunch, which are typically the best times to make a purchase. Students must bring their student ID card or the barcode from Student Connect.

  • Online: Payment can also be made online through SchoolBucks.

  • Credit/Debit Card: A $1 convenience fee applies to credit/debit card payments.

  • Need Assistance with Payment? Please contact us if the testing fee presents a financial concern. We are happy to work with families to make accommodations.

Please note: The AP Fee Reduction Waiver does not apply to the PSAT/NMSQT fee.

The exact date of the PSAT/NMSQT will be shared soon. As testing continues to transition to digital formats, students should bring a fully charged Chromebook and charger on testing day. All other necessary materials will be provided by proctors.

We are thrilled to provide our students with this valuable opportunity to explore their potential, strengthen their test-taking skills, and grow academically. If you have any questions, please reach out to Mrs. Jessica De La O at 818-242-3161 or via email at jdelao@gusd.net.

Thank you for supporting your student’s success, and we look forward to a fantastic testing experience!

Warm regards,

Glendale High School Administration
