The Academic Placement Policy applies to a.) students enrolling in approved certificate or degree programs with pre-requisite placement scores, b.) students who plan to enroll in any course with pre-requisite placement scores.
Prior to their enrollment in math, English, or other programs/courses with pre-requisite placement scores, students who do not have placement scores shall undergo assessment of basic skills. Students whose placement scores are five years old or older may be required to retest.
“Basic Skills” includes those minimal skills in the discipline areas of mathematics, writing, reading, and fundamental study skills which are required for student success in college-level work.
Students scoring below college-entry level in writing, reading, and/or math are required to enroll in the required developmental education courses indicated by their respective placement scores. Furthermore, students are expected to pursue basic skills until reaching college-level competency.
Students who assess into two or more developmental areas of study must enroll in Student Success (EDUC 1103) in their first semester at 91�Թ��.
