How We Help

We administer placement exams for those wishing to participate in the High School Dual Credit program. 

Why Take a Placement Exam

1. Eligibility to Participate in the High School Dual Enrollment program
   • Some students need to take an additional placement exam to participate in the High School Dual Credit program. The placement exam is called the ACCUPLACER Next Gen. Students who are not eligible based upon their ACT score, class rank or GPA may take math and English placement exams to demonstrate that their high school coursework this far has prepared them to have success in college-level, credit-bearing courses. We ensure you are taking the correct test by either administering the tests to you at our campus location in Brookings or issuing you a voucher to take the exam at a certified testing site.
   • Not all ACCUPLACER exams are the same — so don't just sign up for one at a different testing center without contacting the SDSU Testing Center. You don't want to have to take an additional test!
2. Placement in math or English courses
   • Some students will need to take an ACCUPLACER to place into a specific math or English course even if they are eligible to participate in High School Dual Enrollment based upon their ACT score, class rank or GPA.
   • English Placement
   • Math Placement

Where to take the ACCUPLACER

• You can take the ACCUPLACER at the Testing Center on the SDSU campus in Brookings. Alternatively, you can test at any certified ACCUPLACER testing center; this option requires you to register for a voucher.
  
• High School Dual Enrollment students may take the ACCUPLACER once per semester for a $23.50 charge ($20 SDSU fee plus $3.50 RegisterBlast fee).
