Barbara From: Lawrence Williams Sent: Monday, November 24, 2014 12:13 PM To: Barbara Smith Cc: Joleen Reynolds; Susan Sandoval; Carol Dyas; Sean Beatty; Cynthia L McCowen; Gail Pizzola Subject: Course Pairing Project Barbara, Here is an application form that advisors should use to recommend students for participation in the Course Pairing Project. There is one change of the form that is different from the information in the memo that I sent you earlier in the month regarding the Course Pairing Project. In order to participate in the Writing Component, a student must have received a score of at least 353 on the writing section of the TSI Assessment with an essay score of a least 3 and a score of at least 341 on the reading section of the TSI Assessment. In the memo, I used the word "or" rather than "and." Please provide the advisors copies of this form and urge them to recommend students for participation in the program. Susan Sandoval will collect the applications. Ideally, the participants should be first-time freshmen, but any student meeting the qualifications may apply to participate. This is a great program for students with TSI deficiencies, but who just barely missed passing the TSI Assessment. Thanks. Larry
