Students whose scores on the SAT, ACT, or EXPLORE are in the top 25% of our entire seven-state region are invited to a very special recognition ceremony in their state to celebrate their accomplishment. Some students have further scored in the top 10%, and some are our top scorers in a particular subtest or test category.
During the ceremony, RMATS Honors Students in the top 25% of scorers will receive a medal, RMATS Highest Honors Students in the top 10% of scorers will receive a different medal, and RMATS Top Scorers will receive in addition to a Highest Honors medal, a certificate recognizing their top achievement and a scholarship award. All participant and honors certificates will be mailed to schools and students. Medals cannot be mailed and are awarded as a special component of student participation in the Recognition Ceremony.
This is a “graduation-style” event, and students are expected to dress accordingly. We appreciate your attention to ensuring that you have your admission ticket with you on the day of the ceremony for appropriate seating. As we are continually working to improve the ceremony, we will not be able to accommodate scheduling of other events for families on the day of the ceremony – we ask that you plan to attend the complete scheduled ceremony in respect for all participants and this special day. If you have any questions about the ceremony or awards, please contact the Rocky Mountain Academic Talent Search office at 303-871-2983 or city@du.edu.
