IVCC uses multiple measures to determine if you are ready to enroll in college level courses. By filling out this form and its multiple sections, you may be exempt from taking the IVCC placement tests. Before you begin, you will want to have all of the documents and scores that apply to you handy so you can fill out the appropriate fields. Documents needed are listed below with links to access those documents.
If the documentation asked for below doesn't apply to you (you never took standardized tests, graduated with a unweighted HS GPA of a 3.0 or higher, took AP or Dual credit courses, etc.) then fill out the personal information section on the next page, check the field that says "I waive this placement screening and agree to take the IVCC placement tests" and submit.
Self-reported scores, GPAs and grades will be verified once you send your official score reports, high school transcripts, GED score report and/or other college transcripts to IVCC. This is for purposes of initial placement and registration. Failure to submit the official documents above may result in de-registration of your courses with pre-requisites.
Complete your personal information and both the math and English sections below and submit. You will receive an email with results and links to make a placement testing appointment (if required/recommended) and your First-time Counseling and Registration (FCR) appointment for classes. Your progress cannot be saved to complete later.
Fill out your personal information below. The results of this screening will be emailed to you along with your next steps including placement testing and making an appointment to see a counselor. (Please make sure you also check your junk or spam folder for your results email).
