English and Math Placements
All incoming students will be assessed based on the following criteria:
English Placements
English placements will be determined based on averaging the High School Grade Point Averages (HSGPA) and 11th Grade English Scores or English Language Arts Regents.
Action Required: If you have not done so already, please have your high school send your official transcript to the Office of Admissions. We cannot accept transcripts directly from students.
Notification: You will be notified by email once your English placement has been finalized.
Math Placements
Math placement is determined in one of two ways, depending on your prior education:
If you have a high school diploma, a superintendent's letter for homeschooling, or a college degree: You will complete the Math Placement Survey for Spring 2026
If you have a GED, High School Equivalency (HSE), or an international high school diploma: You will complete an in-person assessment using Stemify.
Notification: You will be notified by email once your Math placement has been finalized.
Students with College, AP or CLEP Credits
If you have earned a "C" or better in a college-level English or math course, or have AP or CLEP credits in these subjects, you may be able to waive the placement requirements.
To request a waiver: Please submit a Placement Requirements Waiver and upload an unofficial college transcript or your official AP/CLEP score report for consideration.
Important: Only include college transcripts or AP/CLEP scores with your waiver request. We cannot use high school transcripts to review a placement waiver request
