ACCUPLACER Test

The ACCUPLACER test is offered for students seeking admission to GSW as University College Freshmen, Dual Enrollment students, and Non-Traditional Freshmen. University College and Non-Traditional students taking courses on-campus must meet the minimum required Admit Scores and may exempt learning support with the required Exit Scores, unless their program otherwise requires learning support. Dual Enrollment and online-only Freshmen applicants MUST meet the required Exit Scores to be admitted.

Students must submit an admission application to GSW before registering to test using a remote testing option. Students may also request for ACCUPLACER scores to be submitted to the Office of Recruitment and Admissions from other approved institutions. If scores are submitted from another institution, scores submitted must include the exact ACCUPLACER sections listed below in order for the student to be able to be considered for admission, and the test must have been taken within the preceding 12 months.

Testing preparation materials can be found at accuplacer.collegeboard.org. Students must have a picture ID in order to test. 

Online or Remote ACCUPLACER Exam
Students may take the ACCUPLACER using Meazure Learning, a secure online proctoring service that allows students to test from home, through a scheduled appointment. Students also may select a testing center near their home, rather than traveling to Americus to test. There is a $28 fee for using Meazure Learning. A remote testing center will also charge a fee that normally ranges from $15 to $30. The student is responsible for paying these fees to the appropriate testing service.
