The New State Standard for Proficiency: College Readiness Students taking more remedial courses in their first year of college are less likely to persist in higher education Source: NYSED A New Proficiency,Public Version July 2010
Performance on the Regents Exams • NY State Admissions Directors consider a Regents score of 75 to 85 to be a bare minimum for college readiness: • 75 to 85 on the Regents is considered by selective schools (as part of their holistic review of applicants) the lower threshold for admissions; • SUNY campuses use 85 as a mark of solid competence, below 75 is a mark of “inadequately prepared”; • 75 on Regents is a threshold for placement in remediation for CUNY; and • 75 on Regents is considered roughly equivalent to a 500 on the SAT and serves as a threshold for remediation.
