Math Placement Testing Information

Students exempted from all or part of math placement testing:

  • Students with Math ACT/SAT test scores of 16/390 or lower will be automatically placed into developmental Math (MTH 087 or MTH 088). These students are not expected to take the math placement tests, but they can take them if they so choose.

  • Students with AP math credits and/or students who transfer college-level (non-remedial) math credits from another college are not required to take the math placement tests. An advisor can assist them to determine math course(s) in which they will be eligible to enroll.

  • Students with Math ACT/SAT test scores at or above 27/600 who don't have AP math credits and aren't transferring college-level (non-remedial) math credits are not required to take the first part of the placement test. They are required to take the second part of the placement test to determine math course(s)in which they will be eligible to enroll.

Students required to undergo math placement testing:

  • Students with Math ACT/SAT test scores of 17/400 or higher who do not have AP math credits and are not transferring college-level (non-remedial) math credits must take the math placement tests.

  • First-year students who are not required to submit standardized test scores (those 5+ years out of high school), do not have AP math credits, and are not transferring college-level (non-remedial) math credits must take the math placement tests.

  • Transfer students who do not have AP math credits and are not transferring college-level (non-remedial) math credits must take the math placement tests; unless they have successfully completed a remedial math course at a college, in which case should meet with an advisor to determine math course(s)in which they will be eligible to enroll.
