Exemption from Placement Testing

Applicants who graduated from high school with a College Preparatory Diploma and who submit SAT and/or ACT scores, or who are transferring credits from another post-secondary institution, may exempt parts of the COMPASS Placement Test.

Final determination is made by Admissions after receipt of all official records.

• Traditional freshmen who graduate with a College Preparatory Diploma and who submit minimum SAT critical reading scores of 430 (17 ACT English) are not required to take the English or reading portions of the placement test.
  
  
• Traditional freshmen who graduate with a College Preparatory Diploma and who submit minimum SAT math scores of 400 (17 ACT math) are not required to take the algebra portion of the placement test.

Traditional freshmen who do not take the SAT or ACT are required to take the Placement Test.

Transfer applicants must have all official transcripts sent to Admissions before Placement Test requirements can be determined.

Applicants for readmission should contact the Registrars Office for information about Placement Test status. Contact Nicole Horn at (229) 317- 6745 or e-mail nicole.horn@darton.edu.
