Developmental Courses

Students who do not place into college level courses are required to take developmental courses that are designed to help them build their Reading, Writing and Math skills needed to be successful in college. Students will be placed into these courses based on a student’s ACT/SAT or Accuplacer test scores.

Credits for these courses do not count towards graduation, but they do count towards classification (e.g. sophomore, junior or senior). These grades are also averaged into a student’s cumulative GPA, which could affect their financial aid.

The developmental courses are:

• ENG 078 Reading and Writing Strategies (3 cr. hrs.)
• ENG 098 Essentials of College Writing (3 cr. hrs.)
• MATH 075 General Math (4 cr. hrs.)
• MATH 095 Algebra w/Applications (4 cr. hrs.)

Students who place into a developmental Writing and Reading course must take it in their first semester.

Students who place into a developmental Math course will start with the Math course they placed into; students must follow the sequence for the Math requirements until they have completed the Math requirement for their major.
