Start your college journey off on the right foot!
 

Completing English and Math during your first year is important to your college success.

Will you take your first class in the spring or summer?

RCBC uses several factors, including test scores, high school work and grades, to determine the correct course for you to take. College advisors will take this information from your transcript to place you in the right course. Click here for more information about these factors, known as Multiple Measures.

You must take a placement exam if you cannot be placed off the Multiple Measures chart or graduated before 2018 for math or 2008 for English.

If you disagree with your placement, you can use the process below to try to improve it.
