English Placement
EdReady English Placement:
All new students take English EdReady and work their study paths to a score of 90 for college preparation. Students without ACT/SAT scores may use their English EdReady Initial Score for placement.
Is EdReady English Placement Required?
While JSU is test optional for ACT/SAT requirements, all first-year and transfer students who have not been awarded the first appropriate English credit for their major should complete EdReady English.
Please see table provided for English course eligibility by ACT/SAT subtest or EdReady English Placement scoring:
