English Placement Scores

 
NOTE:
  Effective Fall Semester 2000, ENG 075, 085, 095 – a single sequence of developmental courses that combines the study of reading and writing – replace RED 080, 090, and ENG 080, 090/090A – parallel sequences of developmental reading and writing courses.

 Students are required to take both the ASSET or COMPASS Reading and Writing assessments to determine their placement in developmental ENG  075, 085, 095 or college-transfer ENG 111: Expository Writing.  The student’s lowest assessment score determines placement.  For example, if the reading score places a student in ENG 085 and the writing score places the student in ENG 095 (or vice versa), the student must take ENG 085; or another example: reading score > ENG 095; writing score > ENG 111 = placement into ENG 095.
 

Compass ASSET Required Course

Students are required to take both ASSET or COMPASS Reading and Writing assessments to determine their placement in developmental and College Transfer English courses.  The student’s lowest assessment score determines placement.  For example, if the reading score places a student in ENG 085 and the writing score places the student in ENG 095, the student must take ENG 085.
