General Education Assessment

All students at Southeastern are required to successfully complete a variety of assessment activities. Students from all undergraduate classifications are randomly selected to participate in university-wide mid-level testing on assessment day. The mid-level assessment is administered on the first Wednesday in March and October. University-wide assessment examines the general education skills of students in the areas of reading, writing, mathematics, science reasoning, and critical thinking.

Students selected for mid-level assessment are notified that their enrollment in the following semester will be delayed if they fail to successfully complete the assessment test when notified.

Students are also required to complete departmental assessments in general education courses; this assessment targets specific learning outcomes addressed by each course. Students may also be required to respond to surveys, submit samples of their work for portfolios, or complete exit interviews.
