Students attending college for the first time (FTIC) must be tested for basic academic skill levels using one of a number of placement tests which measure student knowledge in reading, writing, and mathematics.1 Those who score below a certain level must pass college preparatory
courses in appropriate subjects before enrolling in college level courses in the same subject area.
The graphs below depict student success in completing preparatory coursework within two years; and the 4-year retention and success rates for those students enrolled in an A.A. degree program that have completed preparatory courses plus 18 college credits. The 4-year success rate includes students retained, left in good standing, or graduated.
