The ACCUPLACER provides placement, advisement, and guidance information for students and consists of computer adaptive tests in reading comprehension, mathematics and writing skills. The test scores are available immediately after testing and are directly comparable and equivalent to scores on the THEA tests. Several certificate programs require ACCUPLACER as part of their admission criteria.
