CCAC Placement Testing

The placement test allows us to place you into the classes that are right for you! These tests are not an entrance exam, but a way to ensure that you are taking the classes you need to be successful in your college courses!

These tests are free for you to take and are done online. There is not a set date or time to take the test. However, taking them sooner will allow you to register for classes sooner! Tests can be only taken once. For detailed, step-by-step directions on registering and taking the placement test, go to CCAC's Help Center. 

Before you register

• Make sure you have completed your CCAC Admission's Application
• Check to see if you are exempt for taking the placement test
• If you are student with a disability, English as a second language or have limited computer resources, view the testing accommodations  

Taking the test

After you have registered, you will receive an email letting you know you have been registered and placed into the  placement tests. This could take up to 24 hours before you receive the email. You will then need to create your NetID (CCAC username), using your 7-digit student number from your welcome email.

Once your NetID has been created, go to CCAC's Blackboard site and log in with your NetID username and password. Under My Courses, you will see the placement test(s) that you signed up for. 

After taking the tests

You will receive an email letting you know your scores have been applied to your student account and now you can meet with an academic advisor to discuss your education plan and register for classes. Then you will need to complete online student orientation.
