Testing Services
Applicants must make minimum scores in reading, English, and math on the Admissions Placement Exam (APE) or one of the approved tests, such as the SAT or ACT, to be admitted as regular students (tested within the last five years).
Provisional admission is granted to qualified students in some programs. Learning Support admissions is available to students needing learning support courses. Special admission students are not required to take the admissions test. Special admission status is granted on a space available basis.
Students may retest one time per section prior to enrolling in learning support courses. Students may choose one of two options prior to retesting: (1) utilize the SWGTC Tutoring Lab for eight (8) hours of short-term remediation; or (2) wait 30 days prior to retesting. A retest fee of $15 per section (Reading, Writing, Math or Algebra) per testing session will be charged.
