Determine Exemption From Placement Testing

Applicants seeking admission to the College must demonstrate their readiness for college-level coursework. Students may be required to take the college placement test PERT and achieve placement scores in Reading, Math, English/Writing that show these skills and abilities in these subject areas. 


Recent graduates of Florida public and charter schools may be exempt from taking the college placement test. Use the pull-down menus below to determine whether they fit the criteria for exemption of the placement test.
