Assessment & Placement
         
Retaking Placement Tests

Counselors and advisors will want to talk with you about your reasons for wanting to re-take an assessment/placement test before signing a retesting form.

Retaking the Accuplacer

  • You may retake the Accuplacer only once.
    • If you wish to retake an assessment/placement test, talk with a counselor or advisor on your campus to obtain a signed Student Referral For Retesting Form. Present the Form at the Assessment Center on the campus where you wish to enroll and request an appointment to retake the test.
    • Official retake forms are available in the Student Development Counseling Centers.
  • If you have already taken the Accuplacer Math assessment and tested into MA090, MA091 or MA100D and meet certain criteria, you may be interested in the FAST TRACK Prealgebra and Algebra review courses.

Retaking the American English Language (LOEP) Test

  • If you take the Academic American English (LOEP) test and place into the American English Language Program (AELP) courses, you may not retake the test for the current semester. If you enroll in an AELP course for the current semester, you will be tested during the first week of class by your AELP professors to check placement. If your in-class test scores are high enough, you may be allowed to enroll in a higher level English course. Otherwise, you must complete the AELP program sequence.
    • If you are already enrolled in AELP courses, you may not retake the Academic American English placement test and must go through the AELP course sequence.
    • If you take the Academic American English (LOEP) test, but do not enroll for the current semester, you may re-take the test once.
  • If you are in Continuing Education (CE) ESL classes, you may retake the Academic American English (LOEP) test. You must present an official referral form signed by a Continuing Education ESL counselor.
