The COVID-19 pandemic prompted several states to adopt or scale new placement methods, since many test-based placement metrics were unavailable. In April 2020, the Tennessee Board of Regents (TBR) approved a pilot to add high school GPA as a placement method at Tennessee community colleges alongside other measures included in TBR's learning support policy. In fall 2020, the Tennessee Corequisite Placement Pilot allowed entering community college students with a cumulative high school GPA of 3.6 or higher to bypass learning support courses, regardless of their test scores. In addition to this new placement metric, three colleges were approved for an Expanded Corequisite Placement Pilot, which allowed entering students to bypass learning support with a high school GPA of 3.6 or higher or "provisionally" bypass learning support with a GPA between 2.8 and 3.6. Lastly, the Dual Enrollment Access Pilot expanded opportunities for high school students to take college-level courses based on high school GPAs. Although preliminary results of the pilot are promising, additional research is needed to fully understand the impact of the Tennessee Corequisite Placement Pilot across community colleges.
