English and w88 casino games placement and requirements
At the w88 casino, Reno, we take our core or general education requirements with the utmost seriousness. Writing and quantitative abilities are necessary skills for student success.
Core curriculum requirements
NSHE requires students to complete ENG 102 and at least three credits of an approved college w88 casino games course. These two courses may require additional prerequisites, and majors may specify which college w88 casino games course is required for their students. These two courses will build a foundation for CO1 (Core Objective), CO2, and CO3:
- Core Objective 1: Effective Composition & Communications.Students will communicate effectively using writing, speaking, or multimedia for scholarly, professional, or creative purposes.
- Core Objective 2: Quantitative Reasoning. Students can apply quantitative reasoning and mathematical analysis methodologies to understand and solve problems.
- Core Objective 3: Critical Analysis & Use of Information.Students will be critical information consumers, able to engage in systematic research processes, frame questions, read critically, and apply observational and experimental approaches to obtain information.
The NSHE Corequisite and College-Ready Gateway Policy requires all students to be enrolled in college-level gateway English and w88 casino games courses in their initial year of enrollment, with or without corequisite support, effective Fall 2021.
Corequisite instruction is a nationwide movement of teaching college-level w88 casino games and English through a revised curriculum. At the university, the traditional sequence of preparatory courses will be eliminated, with a single college-level course that students can complete in one semester.
English requirements
Every student must complete ENG 102 or its equivalent. Normally, students take ENG 100I (with support), ENG 101, or ENG 113 during their first semester at the University and ENG 102 during the second semester. However, depending on a student’s major requirements, this may be different and a student’s advisor will help them to make the best decision. All students who successfully complete ENG 100I (with support), ENG 101, or ENG 113 will be prepared to enter into ENG 102.
