CSUEAP - Early Assessment Program 2012-1

The Early Assessment Program (EAP) is a collaborative effort among the State Board of Education (SBE), the California Department of Education (CDE) and the California State University (CSU). The program was established to provide opportunities for students to measure their readiness for college-level English and Mathematics in their junior year of high school, and to facilitate opportunities for them to improve their skills during their senior year.

EAP Raters score the English essay or constructed response portions of the EAP exam. Raters are trained to score responses holistically, evaluating candidates knowledge and application of that knowledge.
