Placement Assessment
If you are a new student entering Clark State for the first time, you may be required to take the ACCUPLACER placement assessment. The ACCUPLACER placement assessment will evaluate your skill levels in reading, writing and mathematics based on your major at Clark State. The initial ACCUPLACER placement assessment is free. A $15 fee will be charged for a retest. Most often, placement assessment scores will remain valid for three years.
If you have ACT, SAT scores within the past three years, or transcripts from high school (3 years) or another college, you may be excused from parts of the placement test. Please contact an Academic Advisor to learn more about your options. Click on the “calendly” link below the Academic Advisor’s name who corresponds with your location/major.
