Northeastern State University

The Miller Analogies Test (MAT) is administered through Northeastern State University as a Controlled Testing Center (CTC) licensed by The Psychological Corporation to administer the MAT.

While The Psychological Corporation has rigorous procedures that we must follow, we establish our own testing schedule and our own procedures that candidates must follow to apply for the test.

Northeastern State University is responsible for administering the MAT. The Psychological Corporation does all scoring and reporting of scores.
