      Interesting...linking success to financial aid.  Could address those students who continue to "repeat" a course.

      I'd like to know more about their assessment practices. 
  • additional assessments.
  • non-credit lab for mathematics and a one-credit English add-on.
  • students in supplemental academic instruction courses are outperforming their peers
  • state-mandated standards for K-12 that are better aligned with college placement requirements. The state has also had success with GEAR UP, a federally funded program that the Clinton administration created. It targets low-income students in middle and high schools, offering intensive advising, dual enrollment and college preparation courses.

    This is a copy of Connecticut's Public Act 12-40, which mandates the way that remedial education is delivered to students, focusing on a tiered approach that prioritizes embedded (supplemental instruction) coursework followed by accelerated, intensive coursework before the start of the school year. These changes are to go into effect Fall 2014.
