determine their readiness to register for college level courses. Entering Students must
demonstrate a 10.1 grade reading comprehension level to advance to college level courses
(except as described below).
Students whose scores indicated a need for developmental instruction prior to entering college
level courses shall register in the appropriate developmental course (any or all of: English
Reading and Writing, and Mathematics). A student may not register for college level courses
(except as indicated below) until he/she has attained a 10.1 grade reading comprehension level,
as measured by the approved test. Students placed into developmental math courses, whose
scores after developmental courses in Math indicate a need for further developmental instruction,
will be referred to appropriate instructional support or course work.

developmental courses shall not enroll in college level courses until attaining a college readiness
test score in reading.

taken developmental courses twice, will be referred to other services and cannot register for fully
credited college courses.
