PART 1TEXAS HIGHER EDUCATION COORDINATING BOARD
CHAPTER 4RULES APPLYING TO ALL PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER EDUCATION IN TEXAS
SUBCHAPTER CTESTING AND DEVELOPMENTAL EDUCATION
RULE §4.57Developmental Education and Advisement
ISSUE 02/28/2003
ACTION Proposed
Preamble Texas Admin Code Rule

(a)A student whose performance is below the minimum passing standard set by the Board for a tested skill area on the TASP Test or approved alternative test must meet the requirements set forth in the institution's developmental education plan.

(b)Each institution shall make available those courses and programs on the same campus or center at which the student would otherwise attend classes. Where there are multiple centers or sites for classes, an institution may designate a principal site or sites where developmental education will be conducted.

(c)An institution may elect to provide developmental programs or courses on its campus by contracting with a second institution to deliver the instruction. Under such an arrangement, the host institution is responsible for the quality and effectiveness of developmental education.

(d)A student may not graduate from a community, technical, or public state college or enter upper-division work beyond 60 semester hours at a university until all TASP requirements are met.

(e)When students are concurrently enrolled in multiple institutions of higher education, the institution where the student first registers and pays full tuition charges (Texas Education Code, §54.062) takes precedence for the provision of developmental education in accordance with §4.57 (b) and (c) of this title (relating to Developmental Education and Advisement).

This agency hereby certifies that the proposal has been reviewed by legal counsel and found to be within the agency's legal authority to adopt.
