The University System of Georgia requires that each student receiving a degree must have successfully demonstrated competence in reading comprehension and writing by passing two courses: Regents’ Writing Skills and Regents’ Reading Skills. Students can satisfy course requirements through examination. The Regents’ Testing Program of the University System of Georgia is administered by the Testing Center at Clayton College & State University for three days each semester. Testing dates and registration procedures are in the Class Schedule and Registration Guide each semester under REGE 0001.
The two Regents’ courses, Regents’ Reading Skills (RGTR 0198) and Regents’ Writing Skills (RGTE 0199), are designed to certify basic college-level competency in reading and writing for all students in institutions of the University System of Georgia. Each course carries three hours of institutional credit. Students who wish to earn an associate or baccalaureate degree from Clayton College & State University must pass both Regents’ courses or satisfy the course requirements by examination.
Students enrolled in a Regents’ course must pass the appropriate part of the Regents’ Test in order to receive a passing grade for the course. A grade of “U” is awarded for those who do not meet course requirement or those who complete the course but do not pass the appropriate portion of the Regents’ Test. Students who pass both the course and the test would receive a grade of “S.”
Students who choose to take the Regents’ Test before they have earned 45 hours of credit but who do not pass both parts may repeat the part(s) not passed without taking the Regents’ courses until they have accumulated 45 or more hours of coursework. Students who have 45 or more hours of coursework and have not passed either or both parts are required to take the appropriate Regents’ course(s) during each subsequent semester of enrollment.
Any student who has completed at least 45 hours of credit and has not satisfied course requirements for one or both Regents’ courses must enroll in the course(s) during the next semester of attendance and must take the appropriate course(s) in every semester of enrollment until both courses are passed. The student will not be allowed to register for any course numbered 1000 or higher unless he or she is also enrolled in the appropriate Regents’ course(s). A student may not withdraw from a Regents’ course while remaining in any course numbered 1000 or higher.
Students may satisfy one or both course requirements through exam
