Take Your Placement Test
As part of the admissions process you must take an English and Math Placement test before you can register for classes. The results of the test will assist you and your advisor in scheduling and registering for required English and Math classes. If you took Advanced Placement English in high school and attained a score of at least three (3), or received an SAT verbal score of 650 or more, you do not need to register for or take an English Placement test. Furthermore, if you are a transfer student and have successfully completed a College English course (with a grade C or better) you do not need to take the English Placement test. If you took Advanced Placement calculus or statistics in high school and attained a score of at least three (3), or received an SAT math score of 650 or more, you do not need to register for or take a Math Placement test. Furthermore, if you are a transfer student and have successfully completed a college level math course (with a grade C or better) you do not need to take the Math Placement test. You will receive correspondence on upcoming test dates and times. If you have any questions or would like to register for an upcoming test, contact the Assistant Director of the Academic Resource Center, Stephanie Alderfer, by calling 215-646-7300, ext. 201 or by email at alderfer.s@gmc.edu .
