COMPASS overview
The COMPASS program is a series of basic skills assessments completed on a computer. Developed by American College Testing (ACT), COMPASS stands for Computer-adapted Placement Assessment and Support Services.

COMPASS is designed to measure current skills in reading, writing, and mathematics. This assessment allows you and the university staff to work together to help you succeed in your courses. COMPASS scores indicate areas where you may need help and which courses should be a starting point for your educational career. For sample questions, please go to www.act.org/compass/sample.
