​​​​​​​​​Santiago Canyon College's (SCC) placement methods include the use of multiple measures whereby an overview of students' academic performance provides a means of course placement into transfer-level English, American College English (ACE)/English as a Second Language (ESL) and mathematics courses.  Placement recommendations are given to students who provide self-reported high school information, complete the Guided Self-Placement (GSP) modules or meet with a counselor. SCC’s ACE/ESL students take the Test for English Language Development (TELD) assessment and complete the ACE GSP for course recommendations. The Placement Dashboard below illustrates how SCC students placed and enrolled based on these methods.​
