Placement into ENGH 0890 and 0990 is accomplished by using scores from two tests offered in the Assessment Center, AD004. The first test, the Compass Writing Skills test (CWS), is a computerized proofreading test. The second test, the Degrees of Reading Power test (DRP), is a multiple choice, paper-and-pencil reading comprehension test.

Many students will need to take CTRS 0800, 0900, and 1170 in order to meet ENGL 1010 prerequisites. These courses are offered by the Department of College Success and Academic Literacy.

If your DRP scores is below 77 or if you don't know what your DRP score is, see an advisor (LA 221p;863-8176) to register for the appropriate CTRS course(s).

If you don't know what your scores are, check with an advisor in LA 221p or call 863-8276 or  863-8356.
