Placement testing is done to ensure enrollment in courses consistent with your ability and experience.
You can take the English and math placement tests in person at the Kuskokwim campus or you may request off campus testing through the College of Rural Alaska. If you choose the off campus option, you will need to find a proctor.
Contact Sharon Vaska if you have questions about placement testing.
