Placement

What is Placement?

All degree-seeking students and students enrolling in English, Mathematics, or Science courses must provide placement scores from either a standardized test approved by the college (ACT, SAT, Accuplacer) taken within the last 3 years, or a copy of a high school transcript or GED scores that meet Allen requirements. Students who are unable to provide scores or a transcript, must take the Allen placement exam, Accuplacer. Students may attempt the Accuplacer up to three times per subject. Only the Vice President of Academic Affairs or the appropriate Dean may authorize enrollment in courses requiring placement scores without demonstrated proficiency. To check your eligibility, consult the Placement Chart.

Students enrolled full-time at other colleges who wish to also enroll at Allen at the same time will be allowed to enroll in any course without being required to take the writing or reading placement exam. Students must provide unofficial transcripts or grade reports at the time of enrollment. To be placed into English or Math courses students must meet one or more of the criteria in the tables below.

Students requesting accommodations for ACCUPLACER testing due to their documented disabilities must contact the College’s designated ADA coordinator at least two business days prior to their desired testing date. Students may contact the coordinator for Testing Accommodations. The coordinator will work with the Admissions staff to ensure proper accommodations are in place for the student prior to testing. Students may arrange to take a placement test by calling the Admissions office at (620) 901-6268, or
