Developmental Approach
Entering full-time students and full-time transfer students with fewer than 45 credits who have not satisfied the competency requirement will not be allowed to register or enroll in a third semester until they have formulated a plan for satisfying the requirement and had that plan approved by an appropriate academic authority (see Plans below).
If, by the end of the third semester of attendance, students still have not satisfied this requirement, they will be allowed to register and enroll in the next semester only if the course MATH 090 is included in their schedules.
If, by the end of this fourth semester, students still have not satisfied this requirement, they will be permitted to register and enroll in ONLY MATH 090 until this requirement is met. See the requirements under “ Entering and Transfer Students with Fewer Than 45 Credits Who Have Not Satisfied the Basic Mathematical Skills Competence Requirement,” below.
Students starting at ESU with 45 or more credits (as well as continuing and readmitted ESU students under previous catalogs) who have not satisfied the competency requirement will not be allowed to register or enroll in a second semester until they have formulated a plan for satisfying the requirement and had that plan approved by an appropriate academic authority (see Plans below).
If, by the end of the second semester of attendance, students still have not satisfied this requirement, they will be allowed to register and enroll in the next semester only if the course MATH 090 is included in their schedules.
If, by the end of this third semester, students still have not satisfied this requirement, they will be permitted to register and enroll in ONLY MATH 090 until this requirement is met.
See the requirements, below, under “ Students Transferring to ESU with 45 or More Credits, Readmitted Students, and Students Continuing under Previous Catalog Students. ”
Plans: Information concerning the process for requesting approval of a plan will be available from the Student Enrollment Center and the Department of Mathematics. University pre-approved model plans written in contract form are available from the student’s academic adviser.
Entering and transfer students with fewer than 45 credits who have not satisfied the Basic Mathematical Skills Competency Requirement:
First ESU Semester: Academic advisers review the math competency requirement with students who have not satisfied it and together they formulate a plan to satisfy the requirement no later than the end of the second semester.
Second ESU Semester: Students receive a letter notifying them that a “hold” has been placed on their registration. Students must formulate a plan for satisfying the requirement. The plan must be approved by the appropriate academic authority before the registration “hold” will be released.
Third ESU Semester: Students receive a letter notifying them that a “hold” has been placed on their registration. Students must include MATH 090 in their next semester’s schedule and submit their schedules to the appropriate academic authority before the registration “hold” will be released.
Fourth ESU Semester: Students receive a letter notifying them that a “hold” has been placed on their registration. Students may enroll only in MATH 090 in the next semester. Schedules must be approved by the appropriate academic authority.
Students transferring to ESU with 45 or more credits, readmitted students, and students continuing under previous catalogs who have not satisfied the Basic Mathematical Skills Competency Requirement:
First ESU Semester for Transfers/ First Semester Policy in Effect for Readmitted and Continuing Students: Students receive a letter notifying them that a “hold” has been placed on their registration. Students must formulate a plan for satisfying the requirement. The plan must be approved by the appropriate academic authority before the registration “hold” will be released.
Second ESU Semester for Transfers: Students receive a letter notifying them that a “hold” has been placed on their registration. Students must include MATH 090 in their next semester’s schedule and submit their schedules to the appropriate academic authority before the registration “hold” will be released.
Third ESU Semester for Transfers : Students receive a letter notifying them that a “hold” has been placed on their registration. Students may enroll only in MATH 090 in the next semester. Schedules must be approved by the appropriate academic authority.
