Developmental Education (Archived)

The college offers many levels of Developmental Writing, Developmental Reading, Developmental Math, and English for Speakers of Other Languages courses to enable under-prepared students to complete the prerequisites for college-level work and to satisfy TASP remediation requirements. If you have low assessment test scores, you will be advised to enroll in developmental courses. Even if you are not required to take a developmental course, if you wish to review and improve your basic skills, you may also elect to take one or more of these courses. If you fail a portion of the state-mandated TASP, you will be required to participate continuously in developmental coursework until you meet the TASP standard for the failed section. Failure to attend and participate in the required developmental coursework will result in administrative withdrawal from all college-level classes.
