Brush up on Math, English, and Reading Skills
CACC is offering a FREE opportunity to brush up on Math, English, and Reading skills in order to better prepare for the Accuplacer Placement Exam.
Take advantage of this great opportunity to bypass remedial courses in Math, English, and Reading.
Many students enter their first year of college underprepared for college-level work. A majority of students end up spending their first one or two semesters taking remedial courses in order to get caught up. These courses do not count toward a degree, they do not transfer to four-year institutions, they are not covered by some scholarships, and they do not qualify for dual enrollment.
Save yourself valuable time and money by brushing up on your skills now so that you can jump into college-level coursework as soon as possible. You must determine your initial placement first to see if you qualify.
Contact Kathleen Thompson at 256-215-4332 or kthompson@cacc.edu for more details and to see how to qualify.
High school graduates and dual enrollment students with applications on file for Fall 2018 are welcome!
Sessions start as early as June 4th. See schedule for individual locations.
