Casper school requirements
The short answer: it depends on the school, program, and application cycle. Use this page to identify the program details that matter and verify every school before choosing a test date.
Last updated July 2026. Always verify current requirements before registering because admissions policies can change.
Step 1
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
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
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.
Program categories
Use these categories to make sure you search the right program, campus, applicant stream, and cycle. We intentionally do not publish a static school-name list because it can become outdated.
Requirements differ by institution, campus, applicant pathway, and cycle. Verify the exact MD program rather than relying on a national school list.

How to use this page
Start with every school you might apply to, not only the ones you are sure about. Casper date availability can affect timing.
Search the program in Acuity Insights and check the admissions page for Casper, Acuity, SJT, Duet, deadlines, and score distribution.
Once any school requires Casper, start practicing timed responses and leave time for the official practice experience.
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.
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.
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.
Start practicing timed Casper-style scenarios now, then use feedback to improve how clearly you reason, communicate, and balance competing responsibilities.
Take a free typed mini testNo. Casper requirements vary by school, program, country, and application cycle. Some schools require it, some recommend or accept it, and many do not use it at all.
There is no static third-party list that stays authoritative across application cycles. Search every exact school and program in Acuity Insights, then confirm the result on the program's admissions page.
No. Casper is used by a range of health professions and other programs. Medical school applicants search for it most often, but you should verify the requirement for your exact program.
Take it early enough for your scores to be distributed before each program deadline. The safest approach is to check available dates in Acuity Insights after selecting every school you plan to apply to.
PrepSprint can help you practice for Casper-style responses, but official requirements must be verified through Acuity Insights and the school's admissions page.
Start with the Acuity Insights program search and each school's admissions requirements page. Third-party lists can help you build an initial checklist, but they should not be treated as final for the current cycle.
