Evaluation

If the initial course placement evaluation shows that a student has the skills necessary to succeed in his/her chosen program, the student may be allowed to enroll in course work for that program.

If the initial course placement evaluation shows that the student needs improvement in one or more of the skill area(s), academic skills courses are recommended. The student may enroll in program courses while completing academic skills courses, provided he/she has met the prerequisites for enrollment in the program course(s).

If the initial course placement evaluation indicates that the applicant is unlikely to achieve success at Ivy Tech, he/she will be referred to an appropriate community resource offering the needed assistance. The applicant may enter the admissions process at a later date, following completion of skills upgrading.

Initial course placement evaluation may be substituted if the applicant submits either:

(a) an official transcript from an accredited post-secondary institution indicating achievement consistent with Ivy Tech's admission standards; or,
(b) acceptable standardized test scores (i.e., SAT, ACT).

SAT : 460 Writing, 460 Reading, 460 Math
ACT : 19 Writing, 19 Reading, 19 Math
