Uncover deeper dimensions of
student potential.

The Prism Learner Profile helps admissions teams identify students with
high potential and strong character — through research-based, real-world tasks.

Better Assessments for Better Decisions

Prism Assessments develops innovative, evidence-based tools for evaluating student skills that matter most – but are too often overlooked.

Our flagship assessment, the Prism Learner Profile, is designed to empower high school admissions teams to assess applicants for the skills that predict success in rigorous, values-aligned school communities.

Grounded in leading frameworks for 21st-century skills and noncognitive assessment, Prism Assessments helps schools better evaluate what they already look for – but haven’t always had the tools 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.
Essays, interviews, and recommendations offer glimpses – but they’re inconsistent, coachable, and 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 fairly, more efficiently, and at scale.

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.
