Test Scores

You can use the Test Scores page to manage the entrance test scores for a student. For example, you can view, add, edit and remove the entrance tests required to enroll in your institution, specific program versions, or classes in a program version. You can change the values for a test that has been added, but you cannot change the name of the test that has been added. If you added the wrong test by mistake, you can remove it and add the correct test instead.

The records in the grid: 

  • Are sorted by the Date Taken column with the most recent test first
  • Are filtered by default by the campus selected for your session
  • Display active and inactive tests

The page shows the items for the program version for the current enrollment (if any). You can use the Program Version drop-down to change the program version or select All Program Versions.

The following items can be configured by your institution to require, and automatically add specific tests.

  • Agencies
  • Programs
  • Program Versions

When tests are configured as required, they are automatically added to the test list for the student, so that you can add the test scores.

Remedial Courses

Your institution can specify that remedial courses are required when a minimum test score is not met for programs or program versions. When the student is enrolled in one of the programs or program versions and you specify a test score that is less than the minimum, Anthology Student automatically adds the remedial courses to the student's: 

  • Student Courses list and displays Test Scores in the Added From column (Select the Students tile > select the name in the Students list > expand Academic Records > select the Student Courses tile.)

  • Degree Pathway page in Term 0 in any draft or approved custom plans and the Student plan (Select the Students tile > select the name in the Students list > expand Academic Records > select the Degree Pathway tile.)

You cannot change the course on the Degree Pathway page until you specify a category from the Student Courses tile. For example, if you know the: 

  • The category and term, you can specify them for the course and Anthology Student will display them in the correct location on the Degree Pathway page

  • Just the category, you can specify that and then use the Degree Pathway page to move the course to one of the available terms

If the Student Is Not Enrolled

If you just associate the student with a program, the test is added as required and displayed when All Program Versions is selected for Program Versions in their Test Scores list. (Select the Students tile > select the name in the Students list > expand Admissions > select the Test Scores tile.)

If you specify a test score and it is less than the minimum, Anthology Student does not automatically add the remedial course.

When you enroll the student in the program, the same test is added as required for the specific program and you must specify the test score again for the remedial courses to be added automatically.
