What if

 

What reading, writing and math classes am I required to take?
If you plan to enroll in an English, reading or math course, you must demonstrate that you meet the required prerequisites for these courses as specified by a new Minnesota State Colleges and Universities policy. Students will NOT be allowed to register for English and math classes without meeting these course prerequisites. In order to avoid disruption of your upcoming semester registration, be sure to confirm that you meet course prerequisites in one of the following ways:

  • You have completed the Inver Hills assessments in the two years prior to the first day of classes, and you are registering for the appropriate English, reading and math courses based upon these assessments.
  • You have completed the Inver Hills prerequisites for the English, reading and math courses in which you plan to enroll, and you received grades "C" or higher in the prerequisites. You need to have taken the math prerequisite in the two years prior to the first day of classes.
  • You completed an approved assessment inventory at another college in the two years prior to the first day of classes, your assessment results are on file at Inver Hills, and you are registering for the appropriate English, reading and math courses based upon these assessments. To determine if the assessment inventory you completed is "approved," call (651) 450-8687. Scores from approved assessment inventories should be mailed to the address below for evaluation.
  • You have completed approved prerequisites at another college for the English, reading and math courses in which you plan to enroll, and you received grades of "C" or higher in the prerequisites. A transcript with the prerequisites must be on file at Inver Hills, and the College must approve these courses in order for them to satisfy prerequisite requirements. You need to have taken the math prerequisite in the two years prior to the first day of classes. Transcripts with prerequisite courses should be mailed to the address below for evaluation.
