Regents' Testing Program

Students must register for the Regents' Testing Program at the time they register for classes.  First-time examinees must take both the essay and reading components of the test.  Students who have earned 45 college-level semester credit hours and who have not passed the Regents' Test must take the appropriate non-degree credit course(s) in remedial reading and/or remedial writing in each semester of attendance until they have passed all components of the Test.  They should enroll for testing by entering the following course sort numbers on the registration form:
