All students, except non-degree or guest students are required to provide placement scores (SAT, ACT, or on-campus assessments) taken within 3 years. Please mail assessment scores to the Bay College Admissions Office or fax to (906) 217-1714. Students who have SAT, ACT, Aleks, Accuplacer, or Compass scores greater than 3 years old will need to schedule an on-campus assessment time.
