Developmental Courses

Who takes the developmental courses?
Non-credit developmental courses are required for students whose placement test scores
suggest that they are underprepared for introductory college courses in
writing or mathematics. Placement into developmental courses will be based
on a student's individual needs and program requirements. Students who are
required to take a developmental math or writing course must do so in
their first two semesters and must earn a passing grade before enrolling
in a credit math or composition course. Although developmental courses are
non-credit, they do count towards your full-time status, financial aid,
and participation in varsity sports. |
