English Assessment at DVC

In order to take English 122, the first transferable and required English course at DVC, students must either (a) score acceptably on both the Reading and Writing portions of the DVC English assessment test, or submit an appropriate score from another community college's English assessment test; or (b) submit a Prerequisite Form, available in the Admissions and Records office, with documentation attached that proves the student has met the necessary prerequisite for English 122 at another college or university; or (c) submit other forms of documentation to a DVC counselor that prove the student is prepared for success in DVC's English 122 class. Requests without adequate evidence of preparedness for English 122 will not be honored.
