All first-time, nonexempt students will need to take the Reading, Writing, and Math Assessments. Assessment is offered during the day and evening in a variety of locations. You may take the Reading, Writing, and Math Assessments on the same or different days. Allow two to three hours for the entire test. Admittance to the test is on a space available basis.
Forms are available at the local high schools.
Pursuant to the Shasta College matriculation process, special admit students are subject to assessment testing and possible other regulations. Special admit students are not eligible for priority registration. Advanced approval of students in 10th grade or lower by the Admissions and Records Office Manager is required before registration. Residence results from the union of physical presence with objective evidence that the intent is to remain at that place for an indefinite period of time. Once classified as a nonresident, a student must apply to the Admissions Office for reclassification as a resident.
