Accuplacer (NG) Exam and Score Guides
Accuplacer is a computer-based test designed to assess an individual’s knowledge of
subject areas. Southeastern administers two subject areas: Math and English. These
exams are used to remove developmental requirements placed on a student based on ACT
scores. The Accuplacer exam may not be used in place of the ACT test that is required
for Admission. The Accuplacer exam is not timed. Accuplacer exams are administered
Monday through Thursday, by appointment in the Office of Testing. Students may not
place out of developmental requirements if they have earned a final grade in the course
(or its equivalent) at an accredited college or university. A non-refundable administrative
fee of $10 is assessed for each exam.
