Saturday Placement Testing – Sign Up Today!
Available Saturday Dates:
Important: For First-Year students, June testing dates fall after the deadline for Fall 2025 enrollment. Attending a June session does not guarantee that a finalized course schedule will be established in time for Summer Welcome Days.
Reminder: Register for only one testing session, even if you have multiple placement tests to complete. All required Accuplacer placement tests will be taken during a single appointment on your selected date and time. Remote vouchers are fulfilled Monday through Friday from 9a-4p.
Remote Voucher Requests:
Due to high volume, remote vouchers are processed within 72 business hours (Monday–Friday) from the time of request. If you submitted a request on a weekend or holiday (e.g., May 26), processing will begin the next business day (e.g., Tuesday).
Placement Tests
Placement tests play a key role in determining your course placement, ensuring you stay on track academically while avoiding unnecessary coursework. Requirements depend on your Test-Optional status, SAT/ACT scores, transfer credits, and declared major.
Placement tests are required for:
- Certain Majors – Click on the individual placement test options below for more details.
- Test-Optional Students – Mandatory for all test-optional applicants; SAT/ACT scores cannot be submitted later to bypass the placement testing requirement.
- First-Year Students: Your academic advisor will create your first-semester schedule; however, it cannot be finalized until your placement test scores are received.
- Transfer Students: To finalize your course schedule, your official transcript must be electronically received by the Registrar's Office.
- International Students: Duolingo, TOEFL, or IELTS scores cannot waive placement test requirements.
