GOSA Latest News Update
GOSA Monthly Update
This Month's E-Bulletin: Complete College Georgia: Transforming Remediation
This month's e-bulletin highlights how Complete College Georgia has transformed remedial education at four pilot institutions in the University System of Georgia (USG) and the Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG).
Complete College Georgia is designed to increase the number of students with the qualifications needed in Georgia's workforce. One key to improving college completion is addressing remediation, also known as learning support, for incoming students. By accelerating remedial programs and tailoring them to students' specific needs, TCSG and USG can improve college completion rates in Georgia.
TCSG and USG implemented these recommendations in pilot programs at two TCSG institutions--Athens Technical College and Georgia Piedmont Technical College--and two USG institutions-- College of Coastal Georgia and Georgia Gwinnett College. The pilot programs have produced promising results for TCSG and USG students, and as these programs are expanded and revised, the positive results should extend across the state.

2013 SAT & AP Results Released
According to the annual College Board report, only 33% of 2013 Georgia public high school graduates who took the SAT are likely to succeed in first-year college courses. The report also shows that Georgia's average SAT score for tested public school graduates decreased by 3 points since 2012 and lags the national average score by 40 points. The number of high school students taking Advanced Placement exams has increased over the past five years, as has the percentage of exams scoring 3 or higher. Still, gaps in participation and pass rates remain between racial/ethnic subgroups. To read the full update, click here.
