Virtual Placement Exam Process
Eastern Florida State College has worked with testing partner College Board to offer virtual test administration for current or accepted EFSC students who wish to take a common placement test for enrollment in college credit coursework. The ACCUPLACER Next Generation exam (equivalent to PERT) is administered through the online proctored exam service Examity so it can be done remotely.
All students who are not exempt from required placement testing may submit your request for virtual placement testing after reading the details below. See the Exemptions Info page for more on potential exemptions.
ACCUPLACER enables placement testing through a personal computer or laptop which are required to have:
- Built-in or external webcam
- Built-in or external microphone
- Built-in or external speakers
If you have a documented disability see details on how to request accommodations and allow extra time for that separate process.
Before proceeding you must review the EFSC Virtual Testing Policy.
