- For 7th and 8th graders who do not yet have a high school GPA, we will calculate a GPA based on their core courses (math, English, science, and social studies), and use that to determine admission.
- Since test scores will not be needed for admission, we will continue to pause all Accuplacer testing; however, if a student has Accuplacer scores from another college that they would like to use, we will accept them.
