English Placement

Students' placement in their initial English composition class is based on their English ACT/SAT scores. There is no appeal to this placement. Students who have not taken the ACT or SAT should complete the online Directed Self Placement for English.

ACT

• Students with an English score of 14 and below are placed in ENG 100.
• Students with an English score of 15–17 are placed in ENG 105.
• Students with an English score of 18 and above are placed in ENG 110.

SAT

• Students with an English score of 459 and below are placed in ENG 100.
• Students with an English score of 460–479 are placed in ENG 105.
• Students with an English score of 480 and above are placed in ENG 110.

Students who transfer in credit for ENG 110 (either through AP Equivalency, CLEP, International Baccalaureate, or dual credit) do not need English placement. Please see links to the left for more information.
