Policy Number: 4.7
__________________________________________________________________________________________
Purpose:
The Eastern Wyoming College Board of Trustees is committed to providing a high-quality learning environment dedicated to preparing students for a changing world. As part of the College’s commitment to student learning, all first-time undergraduate students who wish to enroll in credit-bearing coursework, which includes transfer math and English courses or any course with math, English, or reading prerequisites, must provide documentation of scores from national, regional, or commercial assessments as defined by the college catalog.
The Board charges the College President and staff with developing and adhering to procedures and guidelines ensuring that each enrolled first-time undergraduate student who wishes to enroll in credit-bearing Math and English courses or any course that has set pre-requisite and co-requisite requirements is:
- Assessed in mathematics, writing, and/or reading.
- Advised to enroll in developmental skills classes during the first semester following a placement test, when assessment scores indicate inadequate college preparation in any or all of these areas.
- Advised to complete developmental course work within the first 30 semester hours.
