Placement Assessments

Placement assessments are important. We provide these assessments in a secure testing environment online or on our campus.  We request that you complete the assessments honestly so that the results accurately represent your work for appropriate placement purposes. An inaccurate assessment will place you in an inappropriate class level which will negatively impact your performance and academic progress.  We strongly encourage your best effort in these assessments.
