ALEKS MATH PLACEMENT ASSESSMENT
Stevenson University requires an ALEKS Placement , Preparation , and Learning ( ALEKS PPL ) Assessment to determine readiness for mathematics courses . The Placement Assessment is up to 25 questions and generally takes 60-90 minutes to complete . After the Placement Assessment , an individualized Prep and Learning Module is available for students to refresh their knowledge on forgotten or specific topics . Students then have the opportunity to reassess up to 4 times and improve their placement .
ALEKS consists of three parts :
• An Initial Placement Assessment
• The Prep and Learning Module , an individualized , self-paced online review
• Access to 4 additional Placement Assessments
Your results will be available immediately upon completing the assessment , and your Student Success Coach is happy to answer specific questions or concerns about it .
REMEMBER : the ALEKS Math Placement is required for ALL new students .
GUIDED PLACEMENT SURVEY

The Directed Self-Placement Assessment is integrated into REG _ 100 : Introduction to University Registration and Resources . Please give some time and reflection while completing the directed self-placement assessment so you can make the best decision for your English course placement .
