CSU Placement Test
|
The CSU requires you to take the English Placement Test (EPT) and the Entry-Level Mathematics Test
(ELM) before you enroll. Your scores will determine which Math and English courses you should take to
begin your career at CSU. These tests are not an admission requirement. However, they are a
requirement for enrollment.
If you are not exempt from taking the EPT or the ELM, make sure to register for a test no later than
May 1.
|
You may be exempt from taking the EPT and/or ELM;

CSU Placement Tests: Practice Questions
|
|
Once you have completed your FAFSA OR CA Dream act application, each college will send you a financial aid award letter.
Your Financial Aid Award letter will be a combination of grants, work-study and loans.
It is very important that you do not commit to a university without taking a look at your financial aid award letter.
|
Your senior year still counts; so stay focused! Colleges and Universities check your second semester of your senior year. Here are some DO NOT DOs during your senior year.
|
Here are some practice questions to help you prepare for your EPT and ELM Test!
