Norco College collaborated with Corona-Norco Unified School District (CNUSD) to develop Summer Advantage, a unique first-year experience for graduating seniors which addressed the lack of collegereadiness skills in incoming seniors. Summer Advantage students placing below college-level in mathematics and/or English, who demonstrated college-readiness through EAP or high school coursework, participated in faculty-led workshops to gain the opportunity to demonstrate their true abilities in mathematics, composition, and reading. Students subsequently placed one to three levels higher than their initial placement.
