Students will be required to remediate any mathematics or reading performance deficiencies prior to taking a science course. Students with an ACT of less than 19 will be required to complete three science courses to meet baccalaureate degree requirements.

CPT's are required to place adult students in English and mathematics courses and to recommend placement in reading courses.
