Math test scores are valid for two years. If after two years, you have not enrolled in an ECC math class, ACT SAT New SAT3 High School you will have to take the math test again. The English and reading test Equivalency scores expire after five years.

Prior College Coursework—If you have taken college-level courses at another college/university, you may have satisfied minimum competency requirements. Please submit college transcripts to the ECC Admissions Office for review.

3. Early College Credit—Advanced Placement scores must be a minimum of three (3). Visit www.elgin.edu/testing for course credit awarded for AP, CLEP, and International Baccalaureate (IB) exams.

4. ECC Placement Tests—If­ you have not taken the ACT, SAT, PARCC, or high school equivalency tests or if you do not have the above scores, you must take ECC’s placement tests in reading, writing, and/or math. There is no cost to take the tests. Tests are not timed. To test, you must submit the application for admission to the ECC Admissions Office. You do not need a testing appointment; just a photo ID and your ECC ID number.

In order to determine what the minimum competency requirements are for your program of study, refer to elgin.edu/mincomps.

Save yourself time and money Prepare for your placement tests The scores you receive on each placement test will determine which courses you may take at ECC. For example, consider: • John Q. Student scored 33 on his ECC writing placement test. • John must now complete two developmental English courses (ENG 097 and ENG 098), which are 16‑week classes and add to his total tuition cost. • After completing these classes, he must take the college‑level English (ENG 101) course required for his program of study.Research shows students who brush‑up on their skills prior to taking placement tests do far better than those who do not prepare. This is especially important for math skills, which quickly deteriorate when not frequently used.
