2026-2027 COOP/HSPT ONLINE REGISTRATION DIRECTIONS

Students attending participating Catholic elementary schools in the Archdiocese of Newark, the Diocese of Paterson, and Rockland County (NY) should follow school directions for registration. Many schools register their students directly.

The examination is ONLY for current 8th grade students applying for admission to a Catholic high school for September 2027. All others should contact the high school for testing information.

Print Registration Worksheet to gather necessary information before beginning the online registration.

Use the multiple registration option to register twins or multiples with one payment.

Most students attending participating Catholic elementary schools in the Archdiocese of Newark and the Diocese of Paterson will be tested in their schools. The elementary school will be listed as the test site. Do not choose an elementary school unless you are currently enrolled in the school.

Schools *999, 928, 929, 616, 619, and 622 must select three test sites (1st choice, 2nd choice, and 3rd choice). Scroll down on the list to see all test sites, including gender specific sites. The test site does not have to be the school that the student wants to attend. Most students will receive their first choice.
