Goal

The goal of the academic support classes offered through Developmental Studies is to equip under-prepared college students with the skills they will require to succeed in college.

Students who place into developmental courses lack some essential skills because they may have never learned these skills in high school, never planned to go to college, or have been out of school for several years. Developmental, or College Prep, courses involve the same amount of time and effort for assignments as college-level classes, yet they do not penalize students if a course needs to be repeated. (Grades are not averaged into the cumulative grade point average.)
