What COMPASS Placement
Test will I take?
For
native speakers of English and high school graduates in schools
located in the U.S.:
Native speakers of English can expect to take the COMPASS Math and
English placement test. The English has two parts, which consists
of the Reading and Writing sections.
For non-native
speakers of English (International F-1 students, Resident Immigrants):
Most non-native speakers of English can expect
to take the COMPASS Math, COMPASS ESL-Reading, and ESL Writing Sample
Test. In addition, most students who took ESL/ESOL courses in high
school also fall into this category, although the decision to take
the regular English or ESOL will be entirely up to the student.
