Returning Students

I completed high school in the United States in the last 10 years:

New students who completed high school in the united states within the last 10 years will be placed into a math and English course based on one or more of the following:

  • Student's unweighted high school grade point average
  • The level of courses a student took in high school
  • The grades that student earned in their high school classes

Mostly all students can expect to be placed into transfer-level math and English courses. Students who can benefit from additional help will have a placement that requires them to take a co-requisite course along with the transfer-level math or English course.

I graduated high school in the United States over 10 years ago:
