The Admissions Placement Exam (APE) is used in determining your admissions status. You cannot fail the exam; however, your scores are used to determine what Learning Support course(s) you may need.
The APE is available at three convenient locations: SWGTC Main Campus (Thomasville), SWGTC of Grady County (Cairo) & SWGTC of Mitchell County (Camilla). Walk-in testing is welcomed at all sites; however, each site has different walk-in schedules so you need to contact the campus that you wish to take the APE for specific testing hours.
Walk-ins are welcome on our Main Campus:
Monday thru Thursday 8:00 am - 2:00 pm
*Please note the following dates will have an altered testing schedule. Walk-in testing will be available:
September 8 & 9 10:30 am - 2:00 pm
September 15 & 16 10:30 am - 2:00 pm
Picture ID is required at the time you take the examination.
Please report to the testing site 10-15 minutes prior to testing time. The average time required to complete all sections of the examination is 2½ hours.
There is no cost for the APE; however, there is a $20 application fee payable prior to taking the entrance exam.
NOTE: Applicants are allowed one retest per section. There will be a $15 per section retest fee.
