Learning Support Services
The Division of Learning Support Services provides
instruction for students who need to improve their basic
academic skills before attempting college-level courses.
These students will hold Conditional Admission status.
Courses include Reading, English, and Mathematics.
More Placement Exam Information
These courses:
- do not apply towards degree requirements.
- have no influence on grade point average (GPA), and
- may not be transferred. Students entering degree or
non-degree programs who wish to register for any
course which has a Learning Support Services
prerequisite in an area must meet LSS requirements in
that area. All students who place in LSS courses must
complete GMC 100A/Life Keys in the first quarter of
enrollment, unless all GMC 100A/Life Keys classes
are full. In that event, the student must take GMC
100A/Life Keys in the next quarter of enrollment.
LSS Procedures
GMC will honor learning support courses taught at
Board of Regents schools. Test scores and course
completion records will be considered valid for two
years. Students who have not successfully completed
LSS courses at a previous college must enroll in
equivalent courses at GMC. Students must complete
all Learning Support Services courses in the first
sixty (60) quarter hours attempted at GMC,
excluding MSD, PED, and GMC 100A/Life Keys
courses. All required LSS English and reading
courses should be completed within the first thirty
(30) quarter hours attempted at GMC.
Failure to complete the required courses as
specified will require that the student enroll only
in LSS courses until the class work is successfully
completed.
LSS students will enroll in at least one LSS course
per term until they have completed this requirement.
Failure to complete the required LSS course work in
60 hours will require that in subsequent terms the
student enroll only in LSS courses until the
requirements are met.
