| One of the goals of the College is to help students succeed by guiding them into the courses and resources needed to help them fulfill their individual educational needs and goals.
COMPASS placement testing is a requirement for all matriculated students, whether
they are full or part-time. The COMPASS test is also required for non-matriculated students planning to enroll in an English or mathematics course and is strongly encouraged for non-matriculated students planning to complete multiple courses during a semester.
In order to register for a college level course in mathematics or English, students must score a minimum of 70% in the discipline area. Those students who score below the 70% range must enroll in developmental courses in mathematics, English or reading. If there are mitigating circumstances the Director of the Student Success Center may
waive this requirement. Transfer students will not be required to take the COMPASS
test, if proficiency is documented by official transcripts.
