Do DE credits apply to a degree?
Although students receive grades 为 DE courses, those DE courses do not apply toward 学位或证书. DE credits do not transfer to other institutions 和 DE grades are not calculated as part of the student's grade point average (GPA) shown on transcripts. However, DE grades are sometimes considered when applying 为 scholarships, financial 援助、退伍军人福利等.
DE coursework will help you acquire the skills 和 knowledge needed to be successful 在大学水平的课程中.
谁需要修DE?

be

Collin requires that students demonstrating a need 为 remediation in reading, writing
or mathematics complete the appropriate sequence of DE courses in consecutive semesters,
although the student is not required to attend 科林大学 during summer semesters.

How many DE courses can a student take?

小时
are allowed without incurring additional fees.
In addition, students may attempt to successfully complete any DE course only twice

tuition) or the student may complete the course at another institution 和 provide
proof of successful course completion upon returning to 科林大学.
首页 school 和 high school students are not allowed to enroll in DE courses.
