Placement Testing

Carroll assesses your readiness for college-level courses. After testing, an academic advisor  explains your test results in a First Advising Session. First Advising is available online or in small group sessions, which includes a presentation and registration that lasts approximately 2 hours. Considering these results and your academic or transfer goals, your advisor assists you in choosing appropriate courses.
