Mission Statement

It is the mission of the Pierce College Assessment Center to provide students with knowledge of their interests and aptitudes to better enable them to formulate their educational goals.  When a student knows their English and math skill levels, they will be properly placed, thus increasing their probability of academic success.

Location

The Assessment Center is located on the first floor in the Student Services Building, which is situated next to parking lot 1 on the campus map. 

Placement testing is offered Monday through Saturday by appointment.  Appointments for testing are scheduled online.  All students must apply to Pierce College before taking part in the placement testing process.  

The following are required to take the placement test:

1. A photo I.D. such as a driver's license
2. Know your Pierce College student ID number
3. A #2 pencil

The Assessment Center administers the placement test by appointment only.  Test appointments can be made online using the college’s online appointment system.
