Language Lab

Location: CC 4
Phone No.: (949) 582-4534

Students enrolled in certain ESL and international language levesl 1-4 are required to complete a co-requisite lab in the Language Lab.

What is a co-requisite lab? A co-requisite is a companion course that is required to be taken concurrently with the target course. The information presented, or the practice gained, in the co-requisite course is considered necessary for success in the target course. Example: Spanish 1 has a co-requisite Spanish 999A (language lab) and students must be concurrently enrolled in both sections.

In addition, the Language Lab is also responsible for prerequisite code clearances. What is a prerequisite? A prerequisite is a course that must be taken and passed with a grade of C or better before moving up to the next course in a sequence.
