Important items to know

  • College major students must maintain a full course of study

- 12 credits per term (only 1 online class may count toward a full-time enrollment)

- Classes must be graded or pass/no pass (Audits are not allowed)

  • College major students need to make progress toward completing studies

- Pass at least 12 credits per term

- Maintain 2.0 GPA or higher

  • You should continue to take writing each term until you complete Writing 121 to help you gain the skills needed to be successful!
  • Meet regularly with your academic advisor to be sure you are taking the right classes! Building a 2 year plan is an important first step.

6. Successfully complete all three classes of Level F of the IESL Program with passing grades (A, B, and C)

Final grades of F Level classes along with teacher evaluations determine which credit level writing class students will progress into: WR 93/EL 113 or WR 115

  • Pay a bill – By the 15th of the first month of the term
