Using a corequisite model under which a student concurrently enrolls in a developmental education course and a freshman-level course in the same subject area for each subject area for which the student is referred to developmental coursework.
The following policy mandated by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board applies to all developmental courses: Students who do not meet one or more of the established benchmarks of the TSI assessment are required to immediately enroll in a developmental course(s) in at least one of the areas not satisfied.
