Accuplacer
ACCUPLACER is an integrated system of computer-adaptive assessments designed to evaluate students’ skills in reading, writing, and mathematics. For over 30 years, ACCUPLACER has been used successfully to assess student preparedness for introductory credit-bearing college courses. ACCUPLACER delivers immediate and precise results, offering both placement and diagnostic tests, to support intervention and help answer the challenges of accurate placement and remediation. Note: The College Board recommends two weeks (10 business days) between taking the Accuplacer. ASU-Newport will support and follow this recommendation. Any exceptions must be approved by ASU-Newport's One Stop.
