UH Hilo Writing Placement Assessment

The UH Hilo Writing Placement Assessment is a vital tool to determine your current writing proficiency and to place you in the appropriate course level. By taking the test honestly, without the aid of others or A.I. tools, you ensure that you are matched with the writing instruction you need to succeed in your academic journey. If you overestimate your skills, you may struggle in advanced courses without the proper foundation. Conversely, underestimating your abilities could lead to unnecessary repetition of material you’ve already mastered. Honest participation in the assessment allows the university to support your growth as a writer, setting you up for success in future coursework and beyond.
