Placement Tests

As a new student, you may have to take one or more placement tests. Whether you have to take them depends on whether we have SAT/ACT test score for you, if you were admitted Test Optional*, whether you transferred any college-level courses, and your declared major.

There are 4 areas of placement testing: Reading, Math, Writing, and Chemistry. 

Fall Admission Due - June 1
Spring Admission Due - December 12

All placement tests need to be completed prior to attending orientation. Only students who complete their placement testing in advance of their orientation date will receive an accurate schedule at orientation.Click below for instructions and information about each test.
