ACCUPLACER ASSESSMENT

Placement testing is mandated by Board Policy for community college students who are:

  1. Seeking a degree (not including certificates). This includes continuing students who switch from unknown to degree seeking
    and/or
  2. Enrolling in College-level English or math.

If you are a first-time college student wishing to enroll in a certificate or degree program, you MUST complete assessment in English, Reading, and Mathematics, The Colorado Community College and Occupational Education System (of which ACC is a member) has determined this policy. Assessment helps you and your advisor select courses appropriate for your educational background, and in the long term, will help you succeed in college.

Assessment and advising PRECEDE registration. The assessment test is a user-friendly "ACCUPLACER Assessment." No computer experience is necessary. The ACCUPLACER is an UNTIMED test and results are available immediately.
