Abstract: Gateway courses are foundational, college-level courses that apply to a student's program of study or to a college's general education requirements. These courses are typically considered first-year or lower-division courses and serve as a basis for more advanced studies. Research has demonstrated that completing gateway courses in two key disciplines--mathematics and English composition--are positively correlated with completing a degree or credential. Completing gateway courses during the first year of a student's enrollment can generate momentum toward degree completion, but far too many students do not complete these foundational courses during their first year, or at all. This report examines challenges and proposed solutions around gateway course success at Kentucky postsecondary institutions.
