Forms and Procedures

Waiving Learning Support Requirements

During each semester of enrollment, students must first register for all required corequisite Learning Support courses and paired collegiate courses before being allowed to register for other courses.  This policy also applies to part-time students.  Two exceptions are possible:

  • Students requiring Learning Support in both English and Mathematics may defer enrollment in corequisite Learning Support and the accompanying collegiate courses in one area, but must be continuously enrolled in one or both until the college-level courses have been passed.  In cases where students cannot take courses in both Learning Support areas simultaneously, enrollment in ENGL 1001 with corequisite Learning Support should take priority.  All Area A requirements must be completed within the first 30 credit hours, including college-level and corequisite requirements in both English and Mathematics.
  • In the event that a required Learning Support/Collegiate course pair is not available, a student may enroll in one or more unrelated courses for degree credit if the student has met the course requirements, subject to the written approval of the President or designee.

If you are interested in waiving Learning Support Requirements, please fill out the Learning Support Waiver.  The Learning Support Coordinator will review your request and the Learning Support Advisor will notify you of your approval status.

If you have any questions, please reach out to your advisor or contact advising@highlands.edu.

Students who are not required to take Learning Support courses in a disciplinary area may elect to enroll in Learning Support courses in a non-required area.  If you wish to audit or volunteer for a Learning Support course, please fill out the Learning Support Course Request Form.
