What is the Accuplacer?

ACCUPLACER is an 英语 and 数学ematics academic 放置 exam, which new students can take to exempt corequisite learning support requirements. There is no cost to take the Accuplacer the first time for those who have applied to EGSC, however a $15 testing fee is required for each additional attempt.

Students can take the 放置 exam a maximum of three times. Any retest must be completed prior to the first day of class as retesting is not permitted after classes 已经开始.

Do I have to take the Accuplacer?

No, the Accuplacer is not required for admissions but it is used for Academic 放置. Our testing guidelines allow us to place more emphasis on the evaluation of an applicant’s high school grade point average and the 课程 they complete to determine academic 放置.

  • Students with a recalculated GPA of 3.2 or higher are exempt from learning support 课程
  • Students with a recalculated GPA of <3.19 will be placed into co-requisite math 课程 unless they submit test scores that indicate they are college-ready
  • Students with a recalculated GPA of <2.7 will be placed into co-requisite 英语 unless they submit test scores that indicate they are college-ready
  • Test scores are recommended for non-traditional students, students submitting GED scores, and freshmen with recalculated high school GPAs below 2.7
  • STEM majors are strongly encouraged to test if they do not provide SAT/ACT scores

Minimum scores for collegiate 放置/exemption are SAT (480 EBRW/440 数学), ACT (17 英语/17 数学) or ACCUPLACER (258 Next-Gen QRAS 数学/237 Next-Gen Reading/4 WritePlacer).
