Reading/English/English for Academic Purposes (EAP) Assessment

If a student does not have any of the above means for placements, ºì¶¹ÊÓÆµ uses an in-house Reading/English/EAP Assessment to determine what is the most appropriate placement level for each student. Once a student completes the assessment, it will be graded by a ºì¶¹ÊÓÆµ instructor. The instructor will then recommend what Reading and English placement level the student should be placed into based on how the student performed on the assessment.

Once the assessment is graded, an Advisor will contact the student to discuss the recommended Reading and English placement level, what it means, and what the student’s next steps are. Please allow up to four business days to receive your course placement recommendation.

Math ACCUPLACER

ºì¶¹ÊÓÆµ currently uses the Math ACCUPLACER to determine Math placements for students who cannot be placed through other means.

The Math ACCUPLACER is offered on-campus through our Testing Center.
