CCAC Placement Testing
Once you have applied and have been accepted to CCAC, you can schedule a placement test. First-time students are also required to complete a Student Orientation prior to registration for classes.
Because CCAC is an open-admissions institution, college entrance
examinations (such as the SAT) are not required for admission.
However, in order to evaluate your educational background, CCAC
administers the Accuplacer Placement Tests. The tests are designed to
measure your skills in writing, reading, and mathematics, and will
help you and determine which courses are most
appropriate for you.
Although you cannot fail, you should try to do your best. The
results of the tests will determine where you will begin your
studies at CCAC. In some cases, you may be exempted from
some or all parts of the placement test.
