Alternative Assessments

You may also resolve the Assessment Hold Via Alternative Assessments. FSW utilizes alternative methods in lieu of the common placement tests to assess readiness for college-level communication and computation (F.A.C. 6A-10.0315(I)(2)). A score that meets or exceeds the standard score on any one of the assessments (as listed below) will be accepted as demonstration of readiness for college-level work (Test Scores are valid for 2 years per FL 6A-10.0315).

Reference the table below to determine if you achieved the minimum score for college-level readiness communication and computation.
