Also on March 12, new admission standards will be in effect for PCC’s credit programs. The change affects all new students registering for the Summer 2012 term and beyond.

The new standards will require new incoming students to demonstrate evidence of potential success at PCC, as measured on assessment tests in Reading, Writing or Mathematics, or be a graduate of an accredited four-year college or university.

The standards were endorsed by the PCC Governing Board in September 2011. In its endorsement, the Board lauded faculty, staff and administrators for developing “thoughtful and progressive solutions to help underprepared students succeed in higher education and enter or advance in the workplace.”
