Testing within the Dual Enrollment Program

Did you know? Who needs to test?Who needs a Rio Student ID number Students needing to met a course prerequisiteStudents that have never attended or tested at a Maricopa Community College. How many times can I test? Why do I have a MEID and Student ID? Students are allowed one re-test per subject within one year of their initial test. Students must wait a minimum of 24 hours to retest. MEID is a username, used to access your Student Center in my.maricopa.edu When a student achieves a qualifying score, a re- test is unnecessary. Student ID is used when registering and testing for classes If a student has more than 2 test scores within a one year period, we will honor only the first two scores. If a student is unable to obtain a Rio Salado ID number for any reason, please have them contact Student Enrollment Services directly or Assessment scores, with the exception of the reading exemption, will be valid for two years from the date of the original test or re-test. The reading exemption does not expire. Score report should be referred to before testing a student and when entering test scores on the students registration form. If a student uses any other name or number (i.e. MEID, SSN, Richard and Rick) their scores will not be entered into their records and it makes tracking a student’s test scores almost impossible to locate. This may also delay the registration process.
