Placement testing is an important step for most new students, as well as for transfer students, who have not successfully completed college-level mathematics or English courses. 

All placement tests must be taken prior to orientation in order to enroll in any math or English course(s).  These tests assess students’ levels of proficiency in mathematics and in the use of written English and ensure you move forward with the appropriate courses.
