  • Due to the intent to use ACCUPLACER testing rather than TOEFL testing for students whose first language is not English, revised Student Placement and Testing Item 4 (which was added via addendum November 2020) to reflect the removal of TOEFL testing (specifically) and revised International Students (p. 18) pertaining to English requirements per June 2, 2021 cabinet approval.

(It is not an additional course requirement, but rather one of the Humanities/Fine Arts or Social & Behavioral Science courses designated as an HD can be chosen to fulfill the HD requirement); 4) corrected the Associate in Arts outline (p. 51) and the Associate in Science and Arts outline (p. 52) to include an HD course (not an additional course, but one that can be chosen from the Humanities/Fine Arts or Social & Behavioral Sciences).
