If you are a freshman having no college credit at all OR you are a transfer student but your Degree Audit Report (DARs) indicates that you are required to take placement tests, please schedule an appointment to take them by calling Placement Assessment at 651-793-1538 or by sending an email message to Placement.Assessment@metrostate.edu.

The web-based Accuplacer tests are not timed, but most people can finish both the math and language tests in about two hours.  One hour is the norm for most students if they take only one part of the tests.

You may tentatively choose a start time beginning from 9:30, but the latest start time should be no later than 1:30 depending how many tests you need to take.  Our testing center is closed at 2:30. 

Be prepared to provide the following information:

·         Your first and last name

·         Your student ID number

·         Your phone number and email address

·         Choose a test session below and start time of your preference

·         Identify which placement test(s) to take

(Freshmen must complete both math and reading tests,
while transfer students should check on their DARS.)
