Last updated July 2026. Always verify current requirements before registering because admissions policies can change.

How to verify whether a school requires Casper

Step 1

Search your program in Acuity Insights

Use the official Casper booking flow to search for each school and program. Acuity states that schools set their own test dates, and its program search is the place to discover current requirements before booking.

Step 2

Check the admissions requirements page

Look for wording such as Casper, Acuity Insights Assessments, situational judgment test, SJT, or required assessment. Some schools also mention whether Duet or other components are used.

Step 3

Confirm the deadline before you register

A school can require Casper but only accept certain test dates. Match the program, application cycle, distribution deadline, and email address in your Acuity account before paying.

How to use this page

Turn the list into an application checklist

1. Copy your target schools

Start with every school you might apply to, not only the ones you are sure about. Casper date availability can affect timing.

2. Verify each program

Search the program in Acuity Insights and check the admissions page for Casper, Acuity, SJT, Duet, deadlines, and score distribution.

3. Practice before booking

Once any school requires Casper, start practicing timed responses and leave time for the official practice experience.

If one school requires Casper

Add every school you are considering in Acuity Insights before you pick a test date. You may be able to distribute results to multiple selected programs for that cycle, but deadlines and eligibility can differ.

If the page says recommended

Treat recommended or accepted wording seriously, but confirm how the school uses the result. Some programs may consider Casper only for certain applicant groups or review stages.

If you cannot find Casper

Search the admissions page for Casper, Acuity, SJT, assessment, and situational judgment. If the requirement still is not clear, email the admissions office before assuming it is optional.
