All students will have the opportunity to enroll in transfer-level English, ESL and Math. Based on information such as high school grade point average, students may be placed into a support class.  Students are encouraged to take the highest level course that they feel comfortable with.  Basic skills courses are still available.

Place into Classes That Match Your Experiences

Rio Hondo College offers a Placement Tool. Based on your answers, you will be placed in the appropriate math, ESL and English course. Your answers will also indicate if you will need to enroll in a support course.  Students who may have taken an assessment in prior years, have the opportunity to update their placement via the Placement Tool.

To access the Placement Tool, go to AccessRio at https://accessrio.riohondo.edu select the Academic Tab and open the Placement Tool.

Access Rio is available to students after they have applied to Rio Hondo College—a user name and password are required. After completing the Placement Tool you can obtain your placement results by meeting with a counselor.
