Retake Policy

For retake purposes, we define quarters to be:  The week after the end of one quarter through finals week of the next quarter.

Informed Math Placement (IMP)

Informed Math Placement will help you choose the class that fits your skills, and guide you toward courses to reach your academic goals; therefore, retakes are not available. If you have questions about your course placement, meet with an Entry Advisor in Building 6, 2nd floor.

WAMAP

Retake twice per quarter. Review your test results with an Entry Advisor after your test to learn what errors were made and what content to practice before you take your second test. You can review the test topics and take a practice test before you retake the test. Attend a FREE Brush-Up Workshop to get more in-person support. Again, we strongly encourage all students to review and refresh rusty math skills and retake the placement test.

Accuplacer

Retake once per quarter. Students are limited to 4 attempts per year.

Directed Self Placement (DSP)

DSP is designed for students to make an accurate assessment of their skills and choose which course is best for them; therefore, retakes are not available. In the case that someone does want to change their placement, there is a writing assignment that will be given and reviewed by English faculty.

Results

Our fabulous Entry Advisors, located in Building 6, will explain your placement, and the next steps for enrollment at Highline.
