Placement Exam

About the ONLINE PLACEMENT EXAM

The BAMSI Placement Test provides diagnostic information on a student’s skill level in Reading, English, Writing, and Mathematics and places them accordingly. These scores will indicate if a student is college-ready or if the student will need developmental classes designed to build the student’s skills. Developmental courses are non-credit and do not count toward the required number of credit hours for graduation.

A student must contact Admissions prior to scheduling a placement test. International Students should present documents to show that they are at college-level.

The test is offered throughout the academic year-so check the website and admissions for specific dates.

English Placement is one hour (1 hr) and Math Placement is One and half hours (1.5 hrs). The test can only be taken once.

Before Taking the Exam

• Contact Admissions to confirm your eligibility for the test. 
• Please remember the placement test must be taken before you can register for classes
• Ensure that your UNDERGRADUATE DEGREE application is completed and the $50 application fee is paid for.
