High School Waiver Program

The Solano Community College English Department has a waiver program with many of the high schools in the county.  A waiver  allows a student to bypass the Solano Community College English Assessment Test and register directly for English 1.  To qualify for a waiver, a student must meet the grade and year requirements for a course listed in the table below.
