[1] University College Courses (UNIV)

1100 UNIVERSITY STUDIES This course is designed to aid students in being successful at a collegiate level as well as in their personal lives. There are two primary goals: (1) Empower students to become successful learners at the collegiate level. (2) Empower students to develop a realistic sense of themselves as healthy citizens in a university, professional, public and global community. Requirements: This course is required for all University College students regardless of ACT score. This course is also required for any UCA student who is enrolled in a transitional reading and/or writing course. The grade in this course will be used to compute semester and cumulative grade point averages, but the course credit is not included in the required minimum number of credit hours for granting of a degree. Fall, Spring, Summer.

1300 TRANSITIONAL WRITING An introduction to the skills needed in college-level writing. Entering students with an ACT score below 19 in English are required to register for this course during their first enrollment period and during each subsequent enrollment period until they earn a course grade of C or higher. The grade in this course will be used to compute semester and cumulative grade point averages for purposes of academic progress verification, but the course does not provide credit toward any degree. Fall, Spring.

1301 TRANSITIONAL READING An introduction to the strategies needed in college-level reading. Entering students with an ACT score below 19 in Reading are required to register for this course during their first enrollment period and during each subsequent enrollment period until they earn a course grade of C or higher. The grade in this course will be used to compute semester and cumulative grade point averages for purposes of academic progress verification, but the course does not provide credit toward any degree. Fall, Spring.

1330 BEGINNING ALGEBRA This course introduces students to fundamental algebraic concepts in preparation for Intermediate Algebra. Concepts covered include word problems, fractions, graphing, linear equations and inequalities, factoring, operations with real numbers, and polynomials. Lecture and activity based instruction. Entering students with an ACT score below 19 in Math are required to register for this course or UNIV 1340 Intermediate Algebra during their first enrollment period. Once enrolled, students must enroll in UNIV 1330 during each subsequent enrollment period until they earn a course grade of C or higher, after which they must enroll in UNIV 1340 the following semester. Students enrolling in this course may have only three total attempts between this course and UNIV 1340 to complete their remediation requirements in Math. The grade in this course will be used to compute semester and cumulative grade point averages for purposes of academic progress verification, but the course does not provide credit toward any degree. Fall, Spring, Summer.

1340 INTERMEDIATE ALGEBRA This course introduces students to fundamental processes: functions, graphing, linear equations and inequalities, quadratic equations, factoring, operations with real numbers, polynomials, rational expressions, and radicals. Lecture and activity based instruction. Entering students with an ACT score below 19 in Math are required to register for this course or a UNIV 1330 Beginning Algebra course during their first enrollment period and must enroll in UNIV 1340 during each subsequent enrollment period until they earn a course grade of C or higher. Students may have only three total attempts to complete their remediation requirements in Math. The grade in this course will be used to compute semester and cumulative grade point averages for purposes of academic progress verification, but the course does not provide credit toward any degree.
