College Placement Tests (CPT) and Test Proctoring
CPT
College Placement Testing is available at the Riverview Education Center. There is a $15 fee to complete the entire test, which includes Math, Reading and English portions. Re-tests are $5 per section with a maximum charge of $15.00. Call the Riverview Education Center to schedule your testing appointment.
Save time and money...review and prepare for the CPT.
The College Placement Test (CPT) in English, Reading and Math determines if you can enroll in college level courses or whether pre-college classes must be taken first. Therefore, you may be able to ultimately save yourself time and money if you review and prepare before you take the test.
To find links to online review websites for English, Math and Reading, visit the Learning Center.
