The assessment process involves learning about your strengths and weaknesses in certain basic skills in order to help you succeed. If you are a new or a transfer student (transfer students that have not taken a math, English or English as a Second Language class), you need to choose a date to take the assessment test. The counselor will then use the results to help you choose the right courses so you can do your best in college.
