The Community College of Baltimore County
The Community College Research Center at Columbia University’s most recent study found that, while 38.5% of students who followed a traditional developmental writing path successfully passed ENG 101, 74.7% of students who took the ALP path passed ENG 101. CCRC also found that the positive effects of ALP persist into later years: “we also found that ALP students were significantly more likely to persist to the next year, as well as to attempt and complete more college-level courses and credits than non-ALP students.”
