College Placement Tests (CPT) and Test Proctoring
CPT
College Placement Testing is available at the Riverview Education Center. Call the Riverview Education Center to schedule your testing appointment.
A CTC Link ID (student ID) is required to take a College Placement Test. To receive a CTC Link ID you must apply to Grays Harbor College. You can apply online for free.
An unexpired photo ID is also required. Acceptable forms of ID include Driver’s license, state or federal ID card, passport, student ID, tribal ID, naturalization card, and military ID.
Effective September 2, 2026, College Placement Tests are free for the first two attempts per unit per year. The cost is $10 dollars per unit after the first two attempts. Each section of the test is considered one unit. Students are limited to a maximum of three attempts per unit per quarter.
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.

The Riverview Education Center offers test proctoring for both GHC and students from other institutions. Test proctoring is by appointment only, so please contact the Testing Center at 360-538-4049 to schedule your appointment. GHC students will be given scheduling priority.
