State Assessment Requirements

The State of Colorado mandates that first-time undergraduate students at all state system community colleges be assessed in mathematics, writing, and reading prior to enrolling in the second semester of their college career. (Board Policy 9-41, 7/1/2004 and CCHE Statewide Remedial Education Policy)

The State of Colorado mandates (HB 1465) that a student must complete all required developmental courses within their first 30 credit hours of enrollment. Students receiving financial aid may lose funding if developmental course work is not completed within the 30 credit hour limit.

At MCC, all students with declared programs of study or those entering ENG 121, ENG 122, MAT 120, MAT 121, or MAT 135, must complete assessment or secure an exemption before registering for courses.
