Placement Testing for International Students
All new students admitted to MCCC are required to take the placement tests in English, Mathematics and Reading. We also offer English as a Second Language (LOEP test) and mathematics for those students who may be eligible. Only the students who have an associate, bachelor or a master degree from a US university or a college may be exempt from the placement testing.
In order to take the placement test students should call 215-641-6646 to get an appointment or visit our placement test site to find out more information.
English as a Second Language Placement Testing
LOEP computerized English as a Second language Placement Test covers 3 different areas:
- Reading comprehension
- Grammar skills
- Language Usage
After completing the LOEP placement test, students will be asked to write a short essay about a given topic. The LOEP Placement test is not timed, and students are allowed to take it twice before they start taking courses.
