Ordinarily, all new students are assigned to a course in English
composition. Satisfactory completion of 01:355:101 or its equivalent is
a graduation requirement. Additionally, students must complete
satisfactorily a course formally designated by the college as writing
intensive.
On the basis of placement tests, some students also
may be required to take a noncredit writing skills course or a
multiple-course sequence in English composition. Students are placed in
writing courses based on university-administered placement tests.
Students are required to enroll in the appropriate writing course each term until they have fulfilled the requirement.
