Bucks County Community College

Testing Center

  Academics  —  Testing Center

Testing Center

Bucks County Community College offers placement testing remotely and in person. Once you've applied to Bucks, you can test in person during the department’s open hours or remotely on your own schedule. Instructions for testing will be shared in your acceptance letter.

For remote testing, you are required to have a webcam, microphone, and desktop or laptop computer. If you do not meet these technical requirements or if you only have access to a tablet or mobile device, you must test in person in the Testing Center.

If you have already been accepted to the College and want to test remotely, please email testing@bucks.edu for instructions. When emailing, please include your name, as it appeared on your application, your seven-digit Bucks ID number, and your Date of Birth.

In-person testing is available in Newtown on a walk-in basis. Check the Placement Test Schedule before arriving to campus.

Note:

  • If English is your second language, you must complete the Language Use, Reading Skills, and Writing tests in person at our Testing Center. Please refer to the schedule for available hours.**
  • Chemistry Placement Testing questions can be directed to Emily Totman at emily.totman@bucks.edu.
  • Find information for prerequisite approval via transcripts from another college for guest and transfer students on the Prerequisite Waiver page.

Who to Contact

If you have any questions regarding the placement tests you are required to take, testing waivers, or the next steps in the enrollment process, please email info@bucks.edu. Questions regarding the tests themselves, should be directed to the Testing Center at testing@bucks.edu or 215-968-8466.

The Newtown Testing Center is located in the Rollins Center, room 100, adjacent to the Cafeteria.

ID Notice

You must have a physical copy of your current government-issued photo ID to test (e.g. a driver's license or a nondriver's State ID card). We cannot accept of picture of your ID.

Testing Schedule

  • Placement Testing Schedule
  • Bucks Class Testing Schedule (E-Learning/Hybrid/Make-up)

Testing must be completed by the scheduled closing time. We recommend that you budget about one hour per test, plus time to sign in. If you need to complete all three tests, plan to arrive about 3.5 hours before close.

Testing for Individuals with Disabilities

If accommodations are necessary as a result of a physical or learning disability, please contact the Accessibility Office (TAO) prior to testing, at 215-968-8189 (V/TDD) or you can email accessibility@bucks.edu

Academic Integrity

The expectation at Bucks is that the principles of truth and honesty will be rigorously followed in all academic endeavors. In support of this aim, the College requires all students to exhibit academic integrity in all their academic work.

Violations in the Testing Center include:

  • Cheating on an exam, which is the use or attempted use of unauthorized material, information, electronic device or study aid on an exam.
  • Impersonating–which is assuming another individual’s identity or allowing another individual to do so, for the purpose of fulfilling an academic requirement.

***If it’s determined that a student checking in to take a exam is using an ID that is fraudulent or the person is impersonating the owner of the ID, campus security will be contacted immediately.

Our Mission Statement

The Testing Center at Bucks County Community College is a member of the National College Testing Association. In all testing and assessment activities, the Testing Center adheres to the NCTA Professional Standards and Guidelines and provides quality customer service to students, staff, faculty, and the local community. The Testing Center operates on all three campuses and provides testing services for the diverse populations of both Bucks County Community College and the local community.
