Miscellaneous

Do I make an appointment with a counselor before having my placement results available?

No. 海角社区 recommends that you wait to have your placements results in your Viking Student System before you schedule an appointment to meet with a counselor. At your counseling appointment, your placement results will be used to inform the creation of your educational plan (the semester-by-semester guide you will follow to achieve your educational goal).

I was sent a card stating that I have been placed in ESL, but I speak English. What does this mean?

We would like you to be successful and even though you may be familiar with English, your test result indicates that you will benefit from English as a Second Language course. These are intended to improve your English skills and assist you in achieving your academic goals.
