Brooklyn Tech administers the Specialized High School Admissions Test (SHSAT) usually in late October for eighth graders, and early November for ninth graders and students with special accommodations.


FALL 2017 SHSAT Schedule

  • 8th Graders: October 21 - 22, 2017
  • 9th Graders: October 29, 2017

Admissions tickets are mailed to all public, private and parochial schools and should be available based upon your school's distribution schedule. See your guidance counselor for an admissions ticket. Brooklyn Tech DOES NOT provide admissions tickets to individuals, only to schools directly.
