Courses offered in the Developmental Studies program are pre-collegiate. That is, we offer courses to meet institutional proficiency levels.
Developmental Education Proficiency CoursesStudents whose ACT score is less than 19 in English Usage or 18 in Mathematics or who have not taken the ACT examination will be given a placement test, the COMPASS.
Students who do not meet the required assessment scores must take proficiency courses as advised by the ACCESS Center. The developmental education curriculum includes proficiency course in Reading, Mathematics, and English.
Students are placed in one or more of the Pre-mentioned courses, based on the results of the test.

In order to complete and graduate from an LCC certificate or degree program, a student must register for and successfully pass the prescribed institutional proficiency requirements.
