Accuplacer

ACCUPLACER is a series of tests that evaluates skills in reading, writing, and math. Learn more here.

  • ALL Accuplacer testers are required to present photo identification. Proper identification includes state ID, driver's license/permit, or student ID.

ALEKS Math Placement

ALEKS is a web-based program used to determine a student’s readiness for mathematics courses. Students who take the initial test at The Testing Center, can continue to use the program to work on skills and later retest for attempts at higher course placement. A ZSC Student Services Advisor or CCP Advisor will review scores and help make appropriate recommendations for course registration. 

BMCA Credit By Exam

Students must complete the Credit-by-Exam Application and pay the $50 fee prior to testing. Forms are available in The Testing Center or from a student's program advisor.

Credit-by-exam is available for BMCA 1020, BMCA 1050, BMCA 1110, and some additional courses upon request and approval.

Carefully read the exam application for testing policies.

Each BMCA exam may be taken only once.

College Level Examination Program (CLEP)

CLEP exams let you test out of introductory courses and move to more advanced courses sooner, saving time toward your degree (CLEP website, 2023).

Please register and pay for the CLEP here.

Please bring your printed CLEP "ticket" and a government issued ID to The Testing Center.

Please note, a CLEP recommended score is not always the required score for college credit.
