Reading, English, ESL, and Math Assessment Levels and Course Sequencing

Students are strongly encouraged to enroll in the appropriate English and mathematics class as soon as possible. Students who believe their initial assessment levels are incorrect may request to retake the assessment examination or apply for review through the Matriculation Appeal Process. Appointments for retake examinations may be arranged through the Academic Assessment Center website. Appeals may be submitted through the Office of Admissions and Records.

Reading Course Sequence (fulfills the Reading requirement)

Students who place at Level I in reading and wish to enroll in a course with a co/prerequisite of reading must enroll in Reading 99A/B/C/D, English 78A, and/or English 78B, based on their reading assessment score. Students who score Level I in reading and wish to enroll in a course with a prerequisite of reading Level II must reach Level II by successfully completing English 78B with a grade of C or better, before they will be allowed to enroll.

English Composition Course Sequence

Level I courses are two or more levels below College-level English and may not be used to meet Associate Degree requirements. Level II courses are one level below College-level English and Associate Degree applicable. Level III and Level IV courses are College-level, Associate Degree applicable, and transferrable.
