 iCampus redirects you to the College Success site. Review the College Success Online License Agreement and
click “Accept.” Optionally, you may print a copy for your records by clicking “Print.” Before you click “Accept,” make
sure you are ready to start the assessment. You must complete the entire assessment in one sitting or you will be
locked out and need to call your Academic Office for assistance to continue.
  The College Success Student Privacy Policy loads. Review the policy then click “I have read this policy.”
  The Welcome Page launches. This page provides some simple instructions about taking the assessment.
Please read through them carefully then click “Next.”
  You are given directions for answering questions during the assessments. Review these carefully.
  To answer each question, you will click the circle next to the best answer, then click “Submit.”
  You are then directed to answer three questions to determine which assessments need to be taken: the English only,
the math only, or both assessments.
  Answer “yes” or “no” to each question as appropriate. This will tell College Success to load the proper assessments
into your account.
  You will only answer “yes” to one question.

If you answer “no” to all three

questions, the assessment will
close and you will need to
contact your LRCM or
Academic Office to proceed.
  You may not use outside resources during the assessment. It is important that you complete this assessment on your
own, as this will ensure you are placed into the most appropriate class to help you to succeed. Please be aware that
students who violate this policy will be subject to disciplinary procedures up to and including suspension from Strayer
University.
  A calculator is provided within the assessment environment for certain math questions. You can open the calculator
by clicking on the calculator icon in the bottom left of the page as shown below.
  You must complete the entire assessment in one sitting. If you leave your assessment idle for three minutes or more, your
session is terminated. You’ll need to contact your campus Academic Office or Learning Center Resource Manager (LRCM) to
unlock your assessment.
  Please note that if you see the below page, your assessment is NOT complete. You will need to request your assessment be
unlocked so you can finish it. You may not see this page. Instead you might be redirected to the login page.
  Once you complete your assessment, if you are required to take the English Diagnostic you are automatically
prompted to start the next one. Click “Start Test Session” to begin the next assessment.
  Do not click “Cancel & Exit” or you are locked from the session. Your assessment will need to be unlocked by the
campus LRCM after which you will be able to pick up where you left off.
  Once you complete the assessment, the next screen tells you that you can view your score report. If you only see a
white screen, you may need to scroll down to see this message. Click “Next” to view the score report. This report
shows your scores on the assessment and what courses you have placed into based on the results. After you have
reviewed your scores, please contact your Academics Office in order to continue your registration process.
