Placement Exams

There is a $25 fee for all students who are taking all sections of the ACCUPLACER placement exam and $10 per section for retakes (reading, math, writing, and essay).

Students must bring with them a government or state issued, valid ID and their receipt of payment.

After each exam, the scores are printed and put in a sealed envelope for the student to take with them when they leave.
