| | What is Academic Talent Search?
- ATS offers academically challenging, fun classes on the Sacramento State campus.
- ATS is a unique summer program for current 4th–9th grade students (grade level as of January 1, 2010).
- Students take classes grouped by grade level: 4th & 5th grades and 6th - 9th grades. For example, a 4th grader will not be in classes with 9th graders.
- ATS has educated and inspired over 33,900 students since its founding in 1982.
- ATS is a non-profit program sponsored by SacState that receives no state or federal funding.

| | Why should I get involved in ATS?
- Experience a collegiate environment.
- Learn from college professors, instructors from public and private schools, and leading professionals.
- Meet other students who share your motivation to learn.
- 6th–9th graders:
- Experience new challenges in traditional academic subjects like English, Math, and Foreign Language.
- For example, you can learn a year’s worth of Spanish in just five weeks!
- Discover new academic and creative challenges in areas not often available in some schools such as forensic science, cooking, law, and engineering.

|
| | How do I get Involved? What does the test do?
- Be a current 4th–9th grader (a student entering 5th–10th grade in Fall 2010).
- Take the ATS Qualifying Exam (College Ability Test), which assesses your reasoning abilities. Students take the test level appropriate for their grade: current 4th and 5th graders take the “intermediate” exam, while current 6th–9th graders take the “advanced” exam.
- If you are currently in 4th–9th grade (as of January 1, 2010), taking the test automatically qualifies you to apply for ATS classes.
- Use your test scores to help determine which ATS classes match your skills and interests. There are classes available for all score levels.
- Test scores do not affect your school grades.
