Uncover deeper dimensions of
student potential.

The Prism Learner Profile helps schools identify high-potential applicants more accurately, more equitably, and more efficiently.

Better Assessments for Better Decisions

Prism Assessments develops innovative, evidence-based tools for evaluating student skills that matter most for long-term success.

Our flagship assessment, the Prism Learner Profile, is designed to empower high school admissions teams to assess applicants for the skills that shape long-term success within mission-driven, high-expectation learning communities. 

Grounded in research-based frameworks for 21st-century and social-emotional skills, Prism Assessments helps schools better evaluate what they already look for – but haven’t been able to assess reliably. 

Helping Schools Measure What Matters

Students are more than their scores.
Transcripts and standardized tests measure academic achievement. But research shows that long-term success depends on competencies including adaptability, growth mindset, and self-reflection – the very skills traditional metrics tend to overlook.

Traditional admissions tools only go so far.
Tools like standardized tests, essays, and recommendations offer glimpses – but they’re either limited, inconsistent, coachable, or hard to compare fairly across hundreds of applicants. At worst, they create hidden bias.

Prism helps schools see a fuller picture.
Our assessments deliver structured, authentic, research-based insights that help schools understand their students – more accurately, more equitably, and more efficiently.

Introducing the
Prism Learner Profile

A multi-method assessment that reveals how students think, respond, and adapt – not just how they present on paper.

The Prism Learner Profile spotlights two evidence-based domains that impact student growth and campus culture, rooted in educational research, future-skills frameworks, and the core values of top schools:

Teachability

A student’s potential to grow and thrive in a rigorous, supportive educational environment.

The facets of Teachability are:

  • Growth Mindset

  • Intellectual Curiosity & Humility

  • Self-Regulation

  • Meta-Learning

  • Adaptability

Pro-Sociality

A student’s tendency to act in ways intended to benefit others, or society as a whole.

The facets of Pro-Sociality are:

  • Integrity

  • Compassion

  • Perspective-Taking

Partner With Prism

We’re currently inviting a limited number of mission-aligned schools to help pilot the Prism Learner Profile and refine how it supports real admissions decisions.

If your school is committed to holistic, values-driven admissions – and wants better tools to make that possible – we’d love to connect.
