Anyone planning to attend a California State University campus next year, must take English (EPT) and Math (ELM) placement tests before starting. You need to take the tests now. If you’re not accepted to the campus of your choice, take the tests now!!!

1. You can take them at any CSU campus regardless of whether you are planning to attend that CSU campus. Go to the ETS site to get more info.  http://www.ets.org/portal/site/ets/menuitem.1488512ecfd5b8849a77b13bc3921509/?vgnextoid=e9a72d3631df4010VgnVCM10000022f95190RCRD&vgnextchannel=bc41e3b5f64f4010VgnVCM10000022f95190RCRD

2. You can only take the tests once. They are very important as they place you in your freshman English and math classes.

3. The tests are $36 and you must pay with a check of money order made out to ETS on the Saturday morning test date. Your entry ticket will provide more info about what to bring on the test date.

4. Here is a link to test dates around the state. You can also go to your local CSU and find its test dates. You need to sign up in advance.
