  1. . This must be completed before you arrive on campus and before you can register for classes.
  2. Register for classes. Please or program of study for extra assistance. (It will be more challenging to find classes you want to take if you wait until your arrival to register for classes.
  3. Placement Tests: You are not required to take the Accuplacer placement test for English unless you wish to place into ENGL 2010. If you choose to test, you must test online prior to arrival or during the week before classes begin to ensure proper placement before the first day of class. Students may only test once. Please do not attempt to test more than once. Limiting the number of testing attempts ensures fair placement for all English learners. Students who do not test, or who do not place into ENGL 2010, will enroll in the ENGL 1010/WLC 2040/UNIV1106 paired courses — no testing required for this pathway. Math placement Testing is highly encouraged for students majoring in the College of Business, College of Engineering, or the College of Science.
