Pre-Credit Program

The Pre-Credit Program is an innovative developmental bridge program for individuals who wish to attend college but test below the minimum college entry levels. The program combines intensive course work in reading, writing, critical thinking, and math skills with academic advisement and career planning. Students are placed in two- or three-course language arts blocks and/or two-course math skills blocks at either a beginning or an advanced level. Cut-off scores in accordance with the Wright College/CCC Placement Testing guidelines determine course placement. Students receive grades of Satisfactory (S) or Failure (F) at the end of each semester. Students’ advancement to the next level of pre-credit or entry into the credit division is determined both by their course grades and by their scores on progress tests that correspond to placement testing materials used in the College’s placement process. To advance into Wright’s collegiate programs, Pre-Credit students must pass the progress test at the same level as new students who test directly into the Credit division.
