Test Scores

New first-time freshmen seeking admission to associate degree and certain other special programs are required to have test scores on file for placement purposes. Acceptable tests are ACT, SAT, Compass, Asset, and AccuPlacer.

Non-traditional students (age 25 or older) are not required to submit test scores unless they are planning to enter into a specific program that requires them. Non-traditional students with no test scores may be placed in developmental English and Math courses. Note: International students who have not taken the ACT/SAT will be granted provisional admission. These students will be required to take the institution’s placement exam on one of the established test dates set by the institution’s Testing Center prior to registration. (Test dates are available on the SUSLA Testing Center webpage).
