The same rigorous WriteSpan framework — calibrated for the two-year arc. Three assessments. One coherent developmental record. Valid for placement, accreditation, and transfer documentation.
Three assessments at defined points across two years — using the same six-dimension rubric as the four-year track. Every score is longitudinally comparable.
WriteSpan Machine Scores are valid for institutional use the moment an essay is submitted. No waiting. No additional steps required.
WriteSpan delivers different things to different people — all from the same platform.
Scores generated by the WriteSpan Scoring Engine are aligned with WPA Outcomes, CCCC standards, and the SRTOL framework. Valid for placement, Title III reporting, accreditation evidence, and transfer documentation — immediately upon submission.
Human expert validation is available as an optional enhancement for institutions that want additional confirmation. It is recommended but never required.
A student who completes T1, T2, and T3 at a community college carries that developmental record with them. When they transfer to a four-year institution using WriteSpan, their arc is already there. The receiving institution can continue from T4 onward — no reassessment, no lost data.
This is the only writing assessment platform that makes transfer documentation a built-in feature — not an afterthought.
