Each year, West Catholic administers the PSAT to all 9th, 10th and 11th-grade students on a designated testing day.

As testing is now digital, students are required to bring their fully charged iPads to school with them. Room assignments and other important information is emailed to the students as testing day approaches.

2025 Testing Day: Wednesday, October 15

Seniors are not required to be at West Catholic on testing day, but they are encouraged to complete college applications or schedule a college visit.

Questions may be directed to testing coordinator Leah Ebbert (leahebbert@grwestcatholic.org, 616-233-5994)
