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.

Priority Completion Timeframe: Must be completed within 30 days of accepting your offer of admission and 14 business days before Summer Welcome Days.

Enrollment Deadline for Placement Testing

  • Fall Admission: Must be completed by June 1st.
  • Spring Admission: Deadline has passed. Complete as soon as possible. 
 
Important: Testing Services does not waive placement testing requirements. Exemptions require official transcripts or score reports sent to Rowan University Admissions and/or to Rowan Unversity Registrar's Office.

Each student should refer to their New Student Checklist in their Applicant Status Portal.
