All applicants must take the ACT as a part of the application process. Applicants do not have to take the ACT before beginning the application process: however the ACT must be taken before the March 1 deadline.
OSSM does not require the Essay portion of the new ACT.
Only ACT score reports from tests administered between February 2018 – April 2021 will be accepted for admissions to OSSM. We recommend applicants take the ACT prior to the February 2020 test date.
For students requiring testing accommodations due to disabilities, review the College Board website as test registration and administration dates can vary.
To ensure results are received by the Office of Admissions, download and print your score report from ACT and mail it to Admissions.
