COMPASS Exit Exam: Guidelines for Learning Support Students

Learning Support
Academic Progress, Probation, and Suspension Policies

     Students with Learning Support requirements must take required courses (in sequence) each semester of enrollment. A student may not accumulate more than twenty (20) semester hours of degree credit before finishing Learning Support courses. A student who accumulates twenty(20)semester degree credit hours and has not successfully completed required Learning Support courses must enroll only in Learning Support courses until all requirements are successfully completed. In order to exit Learning Support courses, students must satisfy the college's requirements for each prescribed course. In addition, students must score at least the institutional minimum on the appropriate part of the prescribed test (COMPASS) before they can exit a Learning Support area. Learning Support English requires a satisfactory evaluation on an exit writing sample as a precondition to taking the COMPASS as an exit test.            

     Students who do not complete requirements for a Learning Support area after 12 semester hours or three attempts will be suspended and may not be considered for readmission within three years of the suspension. 

     Prior to being suspended, a student who has not exited a LS area within the 12 semester hour or three semester limit may appeal for one additional course. All time spent in Learning Support course work will be cumulative within the University System.
