Step 4: Take Placement Test

Take Placement Tests. Students who have not completed a college-level English or mathematics class are required to complete campus placement testing.

 Option 1:  Test prior to your STAIR session date (see below). To view the placement test schedule and get information about the placement tests, go to www.ius.edu/sdc/ or call the Student Development Center at 812-941-2312.

 Option 2:  Special placement test appointments can be made on STAIR session dates (see below) and outside of normal testing hours. Please call the Student Development Center at 812-941-2312, or send an email with your request to sesdc@ius.edu. This option is provided for students with restrictive work schedules and for those who live a great distance from campus.

Step 5: Attend a STAIR Session

All first-year students will be invited to a mandatory Suceess Through Advising, Information and Registration (STAIR) session. Invitations will begin going out in March, and sessions will be offered from April through August. The earlier you attend, the sooner you can secure your schedule at IU Southeast!

After you register for classes, you will receive a Schedule Confirmation listing the courses, meeting times, and locations of your classes and a Statement of Accounts listing charges for tuition and fees and any credits for financial aid and scholarships which have been awarded. You will need to pay fees by the date indicated on the Statement of Accounts. Payment options, including a three payment Personal Deferment plan are available.
