Giving you the skills to move forward

Everyone can benefit from a higher education, but we understand that not everyone is equally prepared for the college search or college-level coursework. Waubonsee can provide college search resources and help you strengthen certain foundational skills before you move on, so you have the best chance of success.

Learn at your level

All full-time degree-seeking students, as well as other English and math students, must receive proper course placement. You may place into courses that are less than 100-level, sometimes called developmental courses. Since these courses build your skill levels in core subjects, it is recommended that you take them in your first semester at Waubonsee.
