Assessment Testing
Purpose of Assessment Testing
We want to help ensure our students choose appropriate coursework, especially when they are just starting out. The Matriculation process exists to help students make better, more informed educational choices that will help them realize their educational goals in a timely manner. As part of the Matriculation process, the assessment test is an important tool to measure student levels of English, Math and Reading.
The results of the test plus other academic background information produce a placement which will give students and counselors an indication of each student's starting points in these subjects. It is important to follow your placements because many of them include prerequisites - courses you must take before you can be admitted to more advanced classes. These prerequisites are strictly enforced.
