Students may take the required Accuplacer placement tests at another institution if they have difficulty coming to our testing sessions. There are two options as described below.
Voucher
A student can request a voucher to take the required tests in an institution that uses the voucher system. Up until now, most Minnesota State institutions use the voucher system, but not all.
It is students' responsibility to check with the institution they intend to go if they accept vouchers both in state and out of state, even out of country. After students complete their research, they need to provide the following information to request a voucher from us by providing the following information to testing@metrostate.edu.
- Your choice of institution where you intend to take the tests, including State and institution Name
- Your Metropolitan State University student (8 digits) ID number
- Your first and last name, exactly the same as they are in the Student Records System
- Your date of birth
- Your home address
- Your email address (Note: if you use your university email address, it must be in the following format firstname.lastname@my.metrostate.edu.)
- Your phone number(s)
- Your ethnicity or ""I choose not to answer""
- Your gender or ""I choose not to answer""
- What test(s) you need to take
As soon as a voucher is successfully created, students will receive a voucher notice directly from Accuplacer with all information they need.
Online Testing with Meazure Learning
Students who need schedule flexibility also have the option to complete their ACCUPLACER tests through Meazure Learning, which is a secure online proctoring service that operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.

Fees or Charges:

Consent for Release
If a student needs to send his or her Accuplacer test results to a third party out of the MN State System, the student needs to email testing@metrostate.edu for further information.
