Please be advised that with the implementation of the new Two-Semester plan in Fall 2023 (451), new student enrollment has been directed exclusively toward the updated curriculum. Consequently, no students remain enrolled in the previous Level 1 courses, which have been phased out and discontinued, effective Semester 461 in August 2024.

For Semester 462, which began in January 2025, the courses ENG114-3 Listening & Speaking 2 (3 credit hours), ENG115-3 Reading Comprehension 2 (3 credit hours), ENG116-3 Writing 2 (3 credit hours), and ENG117-3 Grammar 2 (3 credit hours) have been phased out and discontinued. This decision was made because no students remained enrolled in these courses, as all new students transitioned to the new plan in Fall 2023 (451).
