Show college readiness in one of these ways:

• SAT scores in English (480+) or math (varies – discuss with academic counselor)
• Enrollment in an International Baccalaureate (IB) program
• Enrollment in the Academic Challenge program
• Foundations of College English (75 or higher) or math course (77 or higher)
• A or B grade in AP math or English course
• A or B grade in AP math course
• A or B grade in Pre-Calculus or Calculus
• Previous college credit (C or better in college-level math or English literature courses) or degree. C grades include C-
• GED College-Ready score of 165+

If students do not have one of these indicators to demonstrate college readiness, they may still enter a college-level course by taking advantage of our co-requisite support model to refresh their skills. This allows students to start directly with their academic program requirements and receive additional support from their instructor each week to ensure they are successful.

Students can also schedule to take our Accuplacer college placement test by contacting their campus. Based on the results of the placement test, students may opt to only take college-level courses. The College Readiness webpage provides contact information to schedule the Accuplacer college placement test.
