English and Math Placement Tests

Coastline’s Military Department provides students enrolled in the military outreach programs the opportunity to take their Math and English Placement Tests at their respective military installations.  The procedures to request placement testing are as follows:

  1. Student and Proctor complete the Math and English Proctor Agreement Form and fax or mail to the Assessment Center location indicated on the form. 
  1. Upon receipt of the proctor form, a Coastline Assessment Center representative shall contact the proctor via e-mail (unless otherwise requested by the proctor on the Proctor Form), w/ copy to the student, to confirm that the proctor is in agreement to administer the exam and that a secure environment will be provided.  We cannot score an exam if a proctor form has not been received.
  1. If on-line assessment is requested, the instructions for administering the exam shall be sent to the proctor via e-mail.  Upon completion of the English exam, the student will receive immediate results.  The normal turn around for math exam results is 24-72 hours.
  1. If paper/pencil assessment is requested, the exam and instructions to administer the exam shall be mailed to the proctor, along with a self-addressed stamped envelope for return of the completed exam.  Please note that students may experience delays in receiving their results due to possible post office delays.
  1. If you would like to contact an Assessment Center representative, you may do so via e-mail at success@mail.ccc.cccd.edu or telephone at (714) 241-6285.
