Testing within the
Dual Enrollment Program
Did you know?
Who needs to test?
Students needing to met a course prerequisite
Who needs a Rio Student ID number
Students 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 retest 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 480-5178150 or 480-517-8540.
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.
