Degree Works is user-friendly, has helpful visual cues for completion, and can be accessed from smartphones. To access Degree Works go to www.sunywcc.edu/degreeworks; specific questions may be directed to degreeworks@sunywcc.edu.

Developmental Courses Developmental courses (credit and zero-credit) are given in reading, writing, and mathematics through the English Department, ESL and Reading Department, and the Mathematics Department respectively. Students are placed into these courses on the basis of their performance on a placement exam administered by the Testing and Assessment Center. The courses are intended to help students improve the skills they need to succeed in other college courses. A letter grade is given for performance in the course and is recorded on the student’s transcript. Students may receive supplementary help for these courses through tutoring in the Academic Support Center and the Writing Tutorial Center in the library, as well as tutoring at the Extension Centers.
