b. In the event that a required Learning Support course is not offered, a student may enroll in a course for degree credit if the student has met the course prerequisites, subject to the written approval of the Chair of Learning Support. No exceptions shall be made regarding prerequisites.
2. Until individual Learning Support requirements have been satisfied, students will not be permitted to take credit courses which assume the content or the skills of a student's required Learning Support courses as prerequisites:
a. Mathematics 0096, 0097, and 0099 are prerequisites for Mathematics 1111; English 0097 and 0099 are prerequisites for English 1101; Biology 2111 and Biology 2112; Reading 0097 and 0099 are prerequisites for English 1101.
b. In addition, students who are enrolled in Reading 0097 may enroll only in the following credit courses: Mathematics courses; all 1000-level Applied Music (MUSA) courses; all music ensembles and all 0000 - 1000-level music courses; all 1000- and 2000-level art courses; 1000- and 2000-level Military Science courses; all 1000-level Physical Education courses; Communica-tions/Drama 2500, 2510.
c. Students enrolled in Reading 0099 may enroll in the courses listed above and in Communication/ Speech 1010 and 1020.

3. Once assigned to the Learning Support Program, a student may not accumulate more than twenty (20) hours of academic credit before completing all Learning Support requirements. A student who accumulates twenty (20) hours of academic credit, and has not successfully completed required Learning Support courses, may enroll only in Learning Support courses until requirements in Learning Support are successfully completed.

4. Students who do not complete the requirements for passing each required area of Learning Support after a maximum of three (3) attempts per area, or two (2) attempts at an area without satisfactorily completing the 0098 course in the area, will be declared ineligible to continue in the program and will be excluded from the institution. An attempt is defined as a semester in which a student receives any grade except "W".

If a student does not complete requirements for an area in twelve semester hours or three semesters, whichever occurs first, the student will be suspended. The student may not be considered for readmission within three years of the suspension.

Prior to suspending a student who has not exited a Learning Support area within the three semester limit, the Department of Learning Support will allow the student to appeal for one additional course. The student must:
* be individually evaluated and determined to have a reasonable chance for success,
* be in an exit level course, and
* have reached the limit on only one Developmental area If granted the additional course, the student may enroll in only the Learning Support course.
