Curriculum
Each student will be directed to the appropriate website wherein they will be given access to take the ALEKS mathematics placement examination and the corresponding result will determine which mathematics course he will take in the program: College Algebra I, College Algebra II, Trigonometry or Calculus. Participants will take at least two additional courses, e.g., English Composition, Introduction to Philosophy, Introduction to Sociology, and The Analysis of Ideas and Concepts. The student may earn 51ÉçÇø academic credit in the respective courses provided he passes the course.
Participants may earn a minimum of 6 credit hours and a maximum of 10 credit hours. The determination of his maximum course load will be based on the College’s evaluation and assessment of his previous academic record and performance. We will include the evaluation of earned dual enrollment courses previously taken, and we will consider approved results of AP examinations. All associated materials should be submitted as early as possible to allow for the most accurate course placements.
The Cost of Matriculation
$3,500 for 6-10 credit hours taken. Students will be offered the minimum and maximum load based on an assessment of their academic needs.
