| New Students |
All new students who enroll at the college in an academic program must take the GTCC Placement Test.
Scores of 510 and 520, verbal and math on the SAT, respectively, will waive the requirement for the placement test, except for allied health, limited enrollment programs. Evidence of success in college English or math at another college will waive the respective test. |
| |
| COMPASS |
The GTCC Placement Test is COMPASS, a computer administered instrument.
The COMPASS is an assessment of skills in written English, reading and math.
The COMPASS results will assist counselors and advisors, as well as yourself to properly schedule appropriate classes for your initial term of entry and beyond. |
