Students who have been admitted to Shepherd without an ACT or an SAT score should sign up to take the ACCUPLACER. The College Board designed the ACCUPLACER to assess skill levels in reading/writing and math to determine appropriate course placement that will ultimately set students up for success. Students who have taken the ACT or SAT but believe that their test scores do not reflect their ability in math and/or English may also elect to take the ACCUPLACER. Instructions for taking the ACCUPLACER can be found here.
