Main Components of Early Assessment Program (EAP) • 11th grade testing in conjunction with STAR testing • Supplemental high school preparation in 12th grade • Teacher professional development • Outreach with students, parents, school personnel, and community • California Community College • Early Start Program (ESP)

  5. FACT • Over 50% of first time freshmen entering CSU will need remediation English and/or math • Over 70% of first time freshmen entering CCC will need remediation in English and/or math

  6. The Benefits of EAP • Provides an early signal It tells students, families, and high schools whether student is prepared for college-level English and math • Alerts students about needed actions Informs students about what they can do to achieve readiness in English and/or math before entering CSU • Encourages 12th grade interventions Motivates students to take needed steps in 12th grade • Enables exemptions It allows students to earn an exemption from CSU English Placement Test (EPT) and/or Entry Level Mathematics (ELM)

  7. EAP Test Overview EAP is a free test administered with the Math and English California Standards Test (CST) in the junior year.

  8. EAP and STAR Score Report • Results are now reported on the STAR Student Report • School districts distribute the STAR Student Report to high schools • High schools distribute letters to families/students in August/September • Online Student Results can also be obtained at www.college eap.org if student has release their EAP scores to the CSU system

  9. EAP Student Possible Results

  10. Ready for CSU college-level Mathematic courses-Conditional (Conditionally Exempt) Take a fourth year of math with an Algebra II prerequisite • Any course accepted by the CSU Mathematics Facility Validation Committee • Trigonometry & Math Analysis • Pre-Calculus • Calculus • AP Calculus AB or BC • AP Statistics • AP Physics • Supervised e-learning Course • Community College Course Student must receive a grade of C or better, submit transcript to CSU to get exempt from ELM

  11. Ready for CSU and CCC college-level English courses-Conditional (Conditionally Exempt) Take any of the following in senior year: • Expository Reading and Writing Course (ERWC) • Advanced Placement (AP) English • International Baccalaureate (IB) English • English courses approved for extra honors credit by the University of California (so indicated on the UC Doorways “a-g” course list with a star) Student must receive a grade of C or better, submit transcript to CSU to get exempt from EPT
