Students with disabilities will take a test approved for TSI purposes with appropriate accommodations. Students who have hearing impairments may qualify to take the Accuplacer, Asset, or Compass Test to set performance levels for placement purposes.

Non-native English speakers are required to be assess in reading, writing, and math skills. An alternative test such as TOEFL may be used to determine the level of English proficiency. Depending upon scores, students will be enrolled in non-credit English as a Second Language (ESL) courses, academic ESL courses, developmental courses in reading and math, and/or college-level courses as appropriate until such time their English proficiency allows testing on an approved TSI instrument. Contact the Counseling & Testing Center for additional information.

Special test accommodations are made for students with disabilities if such accommodations are requested at registration and before the appropriate deadline.
