Placement Tests

Lincoln College-Normal uses ACT's COMPASSŪ computer based placement tests to ensure that students begin their careers at the appropriate academic level. Students must complete placement testing before registering for any math and composition classes.

To schedule placement tests

It is recommended that students allow 2 hours if they are taking all 3 exams, but the amount of time needed varies according to the individual student’s test-taking style.

Students who wish to repeat a placement test may do so with the following stipulations.
