Course Placement Tests (CPT)
Cameron University uses Accuplacer: Next Generation for all Course Placement Tests. These tests are used to determine a person’s readiness for college-level classes in math, reading, and English. The Next Generation tests are scored in the 200-300 point range. Each test is between 20-25 questions and they are not timed. Students can download a free practice app at https://practice.accuplacer.org/login. Register for Course Placement Testing at www.registerblast.com/Cameron.
Days and Times: We offer Course Placement Testing on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday with in-person sessions at 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Remote testing is available for students who are ill or who are not local to the Duncan/Lawton area.
Cost: This test is free to students up through their first semester at Cameron. After a student has attempted or completed a semester at Cameron, there will be a cost of $15.00 per attempt.
Retest Options: Students may retake any sections of the Course Placement Test as many times as they would like. However, there is a waiting period between each attempt to allow the student time to use the practice and app and prepare. There is a two week waiting period between the first and second attempt, and a 30 day waiting period for each subsequent attempt.
