   Admissions - Basic Skills Policy   
  1. Full- and part-time students who are required to take the College's institutional credit remedial/developmental or ESL courses must start these courses during their first semester of enrollment and continue in subsequent semesters until finishing the requirement.  The part-time person may follow a priority policy where introductory Reading or Language Arts (ENG 087/088/089) is required before Introductory Writing (ENG 098/099) when there are two required English courses.  Introductory Mathematics Concepts and/or Introductory Algebra (MAT 011/015-016/022) would be required after Introductory Writing (ENG 098-099) if mandatory courses in Mathematics are part of the multiple remedial/developmental needs of a student.
  2. Full- and part-time students who have given their program of study as undecided will change their program to a College program after completing no more than twelve degree credits or have their program changed by the College to Liberal Studies.
  3. All students who apply for admissions to one of the affiliated hospital Nursing programs must follow the basic skills policies of the school which they will attend even when they are different from Union County College policies.

The "Description of Courses" section of this catalog details prerequisite and corequisite course requirements for students who are required to take the College's institutional credit remedial/developmental or ESL courses.   Department chairpersons may waive specific pre-requisites/co-requisites in special cases.
