SSATB, also known as The Enrollment Management Association (EMA), is a non-profit organization that provides admission and enrollment management services for independent schools. Founded in 1957, SSATB has been helping families and schools navigate the admissions process for over six decades.
At SSATB, we understand that choosing a private school can be overwhelming. There are so many factors to consider such as location, curriculum, extracurricular activities, tuition fees, and more. That's why we offer a range of services designed to make the admissions process easier for families.
Our Services
1. Standardized Testing: We administer standardized tests such as the Secondary School Admission Test (SSAT) and Character Skills Snapshot (CSS) which are required by most independent schools in North America.
