Note: All three exams can be completed during the same testing session.  The reading exam will take approximately 50 minutes. For those also taking the math exam, you are allowed 90 minutes to complete that exam. At any point that you are done, you may begin the English exam, in which you are allowed 60 minutes to complete, and must remain for the duration of the exam. The start times listed above for the English exam are for those taking that exam only.

If you need to reschedule, click here or call (574) 520-4460. Exam dates fill up quickly and rescheduling can sometimes significantly delay your class registration, so we ask that you make every effort to attend the exams on your scheduled day. Placement exams must be completed prior to attending new student orientation and/or registering for classes.
