Abstract | There are concerns that the assignment to remedial courses itself may prove a barrier to successful outcomes by discouraging students or increasing their time to completion. As discussed in earlier reports in this series, one of the arguments supporting elimination or redesign of remedial courses is that those courses may prohibit student progress toward a degree by preventing them from enrolling in credit-bearing coursework in a timely fashion. In other words, remedial courses create a potentially unnecessary barrier to credit-bearing coursework and may ultimately elongate a student's time to program completion. This report seeks to understand whether the data support these arguments by examining students' completion of credit-bearing "gateway" courses during the first year. Part 3 of this series (ED611937) investigated remedial course completion among those students assessed to need developmental work at the time of entry. This analysis, part 4 of the series, will identify differences among three developmental assessment/completion categories: those not assessed to need remediation at entry, those assessed to need remediation who completed at least one associated remedial course, and those who failed to complete any associated remedial course within the first year by segment and by demographic characteristics.
