 Purpose of Assessment Testing

 In order to make sure our students choose appropriate coursework, especially when they are just starting out, we use assessment tests. The results of the tests plus other academic background information, produces a placement which will give you and your counselor an indication of which classes are right for you. It is important to follow your placements because they include prerequisites, courses you must take before you can be admitted to more advanced classes. These prerequisites are strictly enforced.
IVC uses the Matriculation process to help students make better, more informed educational choices that will help them realize their educational goals in a timely manner. Once your IVC application has been processed, the ACCUPLACER Assessment Test or CELSA Test is the first step of this process towards student success.
