Saramen Chuuk Academy seeks to provide a high school education
for more talented young people, Catholic or non-Catholic. Hence,
it screens admissions for acadamic ability through a yearly test.
Those who have passed the acadamic test are screened for character
and commitment.
1. All entering freshmen must pass the entrance examination that
is administrated in February of each year. Saramen Chuuk Academy
will send letters of initial consideration and parents' release
form to those who have passed the entrance examination.
2. A recommendation form will be sent directly to the student's
teacher who knows the students well. Another letter requesting
copies of student's records and transcript will be sent to the
principal of the school. All three items (parents release form,
teacher recommendation forms and transcripts) must be completed
and send to the principal of Saramen Chuuk Academy before a set
deadline. Once everything is collected, the admission committee
will begin reviewing each applicant.
3. The admissions committee makes the final initial
selection of incoming freshmen. When committee completes the selection
of accepted students, a letter of acceptance will be sent to those
who are accepted. In adition, a list of alternates will be made
and these students will be notified of their alternate status.
All accepted students must register (by a set deadline) for a
required summer program(cost $50) to asses their English and Math
Skills. If a student on the accepted list does not register by
this deadline, then students on the alternate list will be allowed
to register. Saramen Chuuk Academy will accept the first 70 students,
and all 70 must attend the summer school program. After the summer
program, an evaluation will be completed for each student. Those
students who fail to meet a passing skill level will be asked
to be transfered. Their position will be filled from a waiting
list. If a student successfully passes the summer program, a $70
deposite and registration fee is required to reserve a seat will
be given to a student on the waiting list. If a student decides
not to come in August, the registration fee ($20) is forfeited,
but the deposit ($50) is refundable. All incoming students must
complete and return a medical form available in the office before
school begins.
