Placement Testing
The Writing Placement should be taken by any student who does not have a prior writing credit (SAT/ACT, transfer credit, etc.). The College Success Math Placement is for students in CLSPS and Highlands programs who are not enrolled in a math heavy degree program. The ALEKS PPL Math Placement is for students in LCME programs who need to take higher level math courses up to Calculus.
Only the ALEKS PPL Math can be taken online. The College Success exams are administered in person. For security reasons, a Montana Tech email is required to register for an ALEKS PPL exam.
There is a one-time $25 testing fee to be paid on the day of the test or over the phone at 406-496-4250.
