Shadow Visits
A great way to find out if Seton Keough could be the right school for you is to visit! Shadow days are days in which you can be a Seton Keough student for the day. You can choose your hostess or you will be matched up with a current student who shares similar interests. During your shadow day you can attend classes, meet teachers and students, and learn about Seton Keough. Shadow dates are available Mondays through Thursdays. Seventh graders are invited to shadow during the Spring. Appointments are required at least two days in advance. Please contact the Office of Admissions (410) 646-4444, ext. 1222 for more information.

High School Placement Test
The STS High School Placement Test is a standardized entrance test, designed for eighth graders. It is used nationwide. Like any standardized test, the HSPT is approximately three hours in length and is designed to measure general eighth grade knowledge. Students do not need to study for this test. Catholic High schools in Baltimore will be offering this test on Saturday December 13, 2008.
This test is required of any student applying to Catholic high schools in Baltimore.

• Students: You will be asked to rank your top three choices for high school on the day of the test. It is strongly encouraged that you take the test at your first choice school. Be honest about your choices. Seton Keough gives first consideration for scholarships to first-choice applicants. There is a fee for the test. Extended time is available. Please call the Office of Admissions at (410) 646-4444 for more information.
