TSI Not Met

Co-requisite Plan 

The co-requisite plan is an accelerated learning program, wherein students who test as unprepared for college level work will be placed into the appropriate co-requisite course AND a college level, credit bearing English or Math course or, depending on the scores, a higher level co-requisite course. The two courses are co-requisites taught during the same semester. This has proven to be a highly successful model wherein students are simultaneously exposed to college level material and given the opportunity to build the skills required to master that material. The co-requisite model makes it possible for students who are not TSI eligible to achieve transferrable college credit in their first semester or, at least, reduce the time until they can take a transferrable college credit course by one semester.

Information for Those Not Meeting TSI

Students whose TSI or TSI alternative scores are below the established standard must meet with an advisor to determine the appropriate college course placement in the area(s) of need or to receive a referral to the College Success Academy.

During fall and spring semesters, all students who are not TSI eligible are required to enroll in college co-requite courses until the TSI standards are met. Beginning in 2018, summer will be one 10-week semester. 

  • Before a student can withdraw from a co-requisite course, the student must meet with an advisor. Withdrawing from a co-requisite course will automatically withdraw the student from the higher level college credit course.
  • Students receiving a grade of “D,” “F,” or “W” in a co-requisite course will be required to meet with an advisor before registering for the next semester.
