Placement for EN 111

An ACT English score of 18 or higher or an SAT Reading score of 450 or above will place a student in EN 111 (Freshmen Comp I). Students who do not meet this threshold, or students who do not have a score on file are welcome to take the Accuplacer WritePlacer test in order to test into EN 111. A score of 5 (out of a possible 8) will allow a student to skip EN 099 (Basic English).

There are three options in taking Accuplacer WritePlacer test.

1. Remote (Proctoring fee varies based on location)

     2. Virtually ($28 proctoring fee)

To register for the Accuplacer WritePlacer remote or virtual test please contact Ms. Catherine Martin at cprice5@una.edu.
