Text, The A.B. 7O5 law says no student can be denied entry into a transfer-level math or English course. For a long time, community college have required students to prove they have what it takes to perform at transfer level. Now, students have the right to choose their own path using evidence that better reflects their experience and strengths.
Text, the A.B. 7O5 legislation requires colleges to use high school transcript data in the placement of students in math and English course. It allows more students to enroll directly into college-level courses in which they can be successful. A.B. 7O5 also encourages colleges to provide different levels of support to help students succeed, such as advising, tutoring, and co-requisite concurrent support courses.
Text, No tests. No stress. No drama. Just customized, success-focused support so you can find your place at your community college.
