Assessment and Testing
Exam scheduling, simplified! SSAP-Testing Center is launching on January 2, 2025 as your one stop-location to schedule exams at the Testing Center.
The Assessment and Testing Center at Seminole State College provides students, faculty and the community with professional, secure and quality testing services to ensure that all individuals have the opportunity to meet their quest for academic and professional fulfillment. We adhere to the National College Testing Association (NCTA) Professional Standards and Guidelines.
Testing Services
Academic Testing: Limited testing is available. Arrangements must be made with the instructor and the Assessment & Testing Department to take the exam at one of Seminole State's Testing Centers.
Professional Certification & Licensing: Seminole State's Professional Testing and Certification Center offers many professional certification and licensing tests to help students meet their career objectives.
Proficiency Exams: Students can test out of certain courses and still earn college credit through a process called "credit by examination". These tests can help determine students' competency in course content.
Placement Testing: Program-specific placement tests allow Seminole State to evaluate students' skills so they can be placed in the course levels that best meet their educational needs.
Entry & Exit Exams: Students wishing to enter certain limited access programs are required to take mandated exams before they can enter or exit, and/or earn a degree, certificate or license.
Common Tests

- Speak with a student success specialist, advisor or counselor about Seminole State's programs and requirements.
