    Mensa Admission Testing

    Mensa Admission Testing


    05/19/24

    Please contact Testing Coordinator Alison Brown by email SIGHT (at) indymensa.org to reserve a space. The exact testing location will be provided when a candidate reserves a space.

    No smoking, calculators, or scratch paper are allowed. Candidates are permitted to take each of the two tests comprising the Mensa Admissions Test battery only once in their lives. Candidates who qualify on either test will be invited to become a member. Please bring a photo ID and one or two #2 pencils with erasers.

    The fee of $60 (this month only, the price is $30!) is payable by cash, check, or any major credit card. You can also purchase a voucher for the fee ahead of time at www.us.mensa.org/join/testing/testingvoucher/.

    Candidates between 14-17 years old are required to have one of their parents also sign the registration form in my presence at the testing site. We are not permitted to test candidates under 14 years old. Candidates under 14 will need to apply to the American Mensa, Ltd. national office in Arlington, Texas using approved prior testing evidence. A partial list of accepted tests and scores is available at: www.us.mensa.org/join/testscores/qualifyingscores/.

    Further questions about prior evidence admission to Mensa may be answered by calling Mensa’s national office at 817-607-0060.
