Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø

A Basic Mathematical Skills Competency is one of the requirements for an undergraduate degree from Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø.

Satisfying this requirement depends on the type of student:

  • New First-Year and Transfer Students for Fall 2024 should complete the ALEKS Placement test.
  • Students who Started at Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø Prior to Fall 2024:
    • If you have a Math SAT score of 500 or higher, please provide that information to the university or Mathematics Department.
    • If you transfer a math course to Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø with a grade of C or higher, you will have satisfied the Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø Basic Mathematical Skills Competency requirement.
    • If you need to take a math course for your program or you want to take a math course for other reasons, please complete the ALEKS Placement test.
    • For all other students, the University is in the process of creating a procedure for returning students to satisfy the Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø Basic Mathematical Skills Competency requirement. These details will be posted on this site as soon as they become available.

Competency Requirements

All Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø students are required to complete the Basic Mathematical Skills Competency requirement. The ALEKS PPL assessment is an advising system for placement into a mathematics class.

Once you are placed into a mathematics course, you must pass this course in order to complete the Basic Mathematical Skills Competency requirement.
