A History of Remediation Efforts at CPP and the CSU

EO 665 Enacted in 1997 Goal: Reduce remediation to 10% of entering class in 10 years Requirements: ▫Take placement exams in English and math ▫Begin remediation in the fall quarter ▫Complete remediation before second year

EO 665 Population Not Proficient in English Not Proficient in Math %41% %30% %27% %20% %17% %19%

RESULTS OF CPP REMEDIATION Admit YearRemediated in One Year % % % % %

EARLY START Implemented at Cal Poly Pomona in 2003 Full slate of remediation offerings ▫Student Success course Students strongly encouraged to attend Financial aid available Costs competitive with academic year fees

EARLY START 20-30% of remedial students participated Pass rates were similar to those during academic year Financial aid was problematic

EO 1048 – MANDATORY EARLY START Enacted in 2010/ Implemented in 2012 Goal: Improve completion of remediation, and increase graduation rates Requirements: ▫Start remediation in Summer before first quarter  All students needing math must begin in 2012  Students in the lowest quartile needing English must begin in 2012  All other English students must begin in 2014

EO 1048 STRUCTURE Campuses must offer options for “destination” students and “service” students ▫1 semester unit / 1.5 quarter unit “starter” course ▫3 semester unit / 4 quarter unit courses Cost competitive with academic year fees, but only cover Early Start classes Student with financial need receive fee waivers. There are exceptions for non-residents and other special groups.
