ACT
Most students enrolling at Rose State College are not required to take the ACT. Some of the reasons a student might need an ACT are:
- Applying for scholarships
- Concurrent high school students preparing to enroll
- Health science majors
- Students for whom English is not their first language
- Removing course deficiencies
Students entering the College for the first time who have not taken the ACT exams or who have scored below 19 on an ACT subtest will be required to take the Rose State assessment exam (ACCUPLACER) for placement into courses.
ACT On-Campus Testing
Students planning to enroll at Rose State College who have missed a National ACT test date may take the ACT residual (Call (405) 733-7320 for a list of ACT on Campus Testing test dates). One week’s advance registration is required in the Student Services Test Center, room 204. Scores from ACT on Campus testing will be valid only at this institution. No score report is generated except for the Rose State Admissions Office.
National ACT
National scores may be used at any institution. Students who wish to register for the National ACT test may do so online.
Consider choosing a test date at least two months ahead of the application deadlines of all the colleges and scholarship agencies you might want to apply to.
Most students receive test results 2-4 weeks after testing, while the latest could be 8 weeks.
