The primary goal of the ARC is to offer prospective students an opportunity to improve their basic skills in math, reading, and writing prior to enrolling in college. The ARC is designed to help students who need a refresher in math, reading, and writing before taking the Accuplacer test or before enrolling in developmental studies courses.
