Students Accepted with Prescribed Intervention

Some freshmen who do not meet regular admissions standards but whose high school performance or test scores indicate a possibility of success may be accepted. They are advised through the Student Success Center. They will receive skills assessments and will be placed in classes selectively to enhance their academic success. Many will be required to take skills building classes. Our goal for students accepted with intervention is to have them improve skills deficits and achieve satisfactory academic performance to progress in their academic program.
