  3. SSTF – Focus Area 1Increase Student Readiness For College 1.1 Community colleges will collaborate with K-12 education to jointly develop new common standards for college and career readiness that are aligned with high school exit standards. How and why: closely collaborate with the SBE and Superintendent of Public Instruction to define standards for college and career readiness reduce the number of students needing remediation help ensure that students who graduate from high school meeting 12th grade standards are ready for college-level work encourage more students to achieve those standards by clearly defining college and career expectations.
  4. SSTF – Focus Area 2Strengthen Support For Entering Students 2.2 Require all incoming community college students to: (1) participate in diagnostic assessment and orientation and (2) develop an education plan. How and why: students have the foundational tools to make informed choices The Board of Governors will define categories of students who should be exempt from mandatory placement and orientation (students with a prior degree returning to pursue training in a different career field) Colleges would also be able to exempt students from each of these requirements on a case-by-case basis.
  5. SSTF – Focus Area 2Strengthen Support For Entering Students 2.2 Require all incoming community college students to: (1) participate in diagnostic assessment and orientation and (2) develop an education plan. MC COUNSELING: Offering orientation classes at the high school Working with the college to offer early registration for completing orientation Multiple modalities: in-person, hybrid, online, foreign languages Implementing a process for exemptions Utilize report each term to contact students that have not completed orientation Require educational plan in orientation and other study skills courses Required by special programs Grad project eAdvising – in progress as directed by the state
  6. SSTF – Focus Area 2Strengthen Support For Entering Students 2.4 Require students whose diagnostic assessments show a lack of readiness for college to participate in a support resource, such as a student success course, learning community, or other sustained intervention, provided by the college for new students. How and why: A student’s readiness for college is based on several factors in addition to their academic proficiency in English and mathematics numerous models of supporting under-prepared through college success courses, first-year experience programs, learning communities, and campus-wide initiatives

  8. SSTF – Focus Area 2Strengthen Support For Entering Students 2.5 Encourage students to declare a program of study upon admission, intervene if a declaration is not made by the end of their second term, and require declaration by the end their third term in order to maintain enrollment priority. How and why: First-year concentrators were nearly 50 percent more likely to complete than those who entered a program in their second year, Unable to declare a major or program of study by the end of second term, should be provided counseling and career planning interventions Fail to declare a program of study after their third term should lose enrollment priority.

  10. SSTF – Focus Area 3Incentivize Successful Student Behaviors 3.1 The Community Colleges will adopt system-wide enrollment priorities that: (1) reflect the core mission of transfer, career technical education and basic skills development; (2) encourage students to identify their educational objective and follow a prescribed path most likely to lead to success; (3) ensure access and the opportunity for success for new students; (4) incentivize students to make progress toward their educational goal. How and why: Current law and practice guiding student enrollment tends to favor the continuing student, based solely on their accrual of course units
