Admissions Testing

Student Readiness Assessment (ACCUPLACER)  

Many programs require English and/or Math skills for admission. You may be required to write a Student Readiness Assessment (SRA) if:

  • You have not taken the required English or Math courses listed in your program's admission requirements.
  • You have been out of school for several years.
  • You are an international or out-of-province applicant.

 

 Taking your Student Readiness Assessment

You must have a current ²ÝÁñÉçÇø student number and have applied for a ²ÝÁñÉçÇø  program to write the test. The test fee ($20 plus gst) must be paid prior to taking the test.

Please see Minimum Scores Sheet for the tests and scores required for your program.

*SRA results are good for one year.
