How to Apply
Placement Exams
Your academic advisor cannot develop your first-term schedule until you complete your placement exam(s). The goal of these exams is to ensure that you are placed into courses for which you are well-prepared. Because the knowledge you've attained in a particular subject area may vary depending on your previous studies, the placement exams present an opportunity to tailor-fit your first-year courses according to your skill level.
