Writing Course Placement

Student Reading in Campus Library  Writing Courses at COCC:  All students (*unless exempt) taking credit classes must take the COCC placement assessment prior to registration in order to assess their current abilities in reading, writing and math. This information will help students choose the most appropriate courses for their skill level. Initial placement in COCC Writing Courses is based on reading and writing placement assessment results.

*WR 121 Prerequisites: students may register in WR 121 only if they have met at least one of the following prerequisites:

  • Earned Writing and Reading placement test scores that place the student in WR 121;
  • Successfully completed (with a grade or "C" or higher) WR 65, WR 75, or WR 95;
  • Completed a two-year associate degree or higher degree, supported by an official college transcript;
  • Successfully completed (with a grade of "C" or higher) a course determined to be equivalent to WR 121 at a previous college supported by an official college transcript
