Developmental Writing

Many colleges and universities now require a minimum level of writing competence. And unlike the past, where a student could take a remedial writing course freshman year, these days schools frequently require students to take a college prep course like Developmental Writing prior to admission.

In Developmental Writing, you will examine the fundamental process, theories, and methods that you need to enhance your overall writing ability. You’ll study various strategies for writing within multiple disciplines and professions, but you will also examine the basic principles of effective college-level writing, including drafting and revising sentences, paragraphs, and essays. And when you’re done with this course, you will be prepared to meet the basic writing requirements for starting college and be ready to take on and succeed at English Composition I.

Online Developmental Writing is a not-for-credit course designed to prepare you to complete English Composition I successfully. It includes:

  • - 24/7/365 Online Access
  • - 10 Hours of Free Developmental Writing Tutoring Help
  • - Transcript/Credit Transfer Assistance
  • - Access to Student Advisors
