CSU EAP Important Information

Just a quick reminder regarding EAP "Conditional” seniors hoping to raise their Conditional status to Ready status: 

Both semesters (of an approved high school course) need to be passed with a grade "C" or higher.  "C-" is not acceptable.  If a senior receives a grade "C-" or lower in either semester, they need to register and take the placement test (ELM/EPT).  

April 18, 2014 is the registration deadline for May 3, 2014 placement (ELM/EPT) test.  Seniors need to test by May 3, 2014 as it is the last date that ELM/EPT will be administered for 2014 incoming freshman.  Registration information can be found at: http://www.csupomona.edu/~testcenter/tests/index.shtml

Below are links where you will find CSU approved English and math classes that satisfy "Conditional" status.  
English:     http://www.csuenglishsuccess.org/conditional_esw

If you have any question at all about your status, please see your counselor ASAP!  This is only for Seniors intending to go to a CSU school in the Fall.
