The Graduate Admission Test (PAEP, Spanish) is designed to assess your skills, abilities, and knowledge in order to enroll in graduate school. The test is divided into five areas: verbal reasoning, quantitative reasoning, cognitive ability, writing, and English proficiency.

If you live in an area where the PAEP test is not available, you can take an equivalent test such as GMAT, GRE, and EA. Acceptance of equivalent tests depends on the graduate program you are applying to. Contact your graduate program advisor for more information and schedule your test.
