Mathematics Mandatory Placement

 

 

Placement test results show the highest course in which students may enroll.  Mandatory placement applies to students with an ACT Composite of less than 20 and prevents students who place in either Mathematics 070 or Mathematics 080 from enrolling in a mathematics course with a higher number. 

 

Students with entrance deficiencies in high school mathematics will be placed in developmental courses to remove the deficiencies.  Credit for those courses cannot be counted toward any degree requirements.  The type of deficiency determines the student’s placement as follows:

 

  • Mathematics 070 (remove one unit of deficiency in Algebra I)
  • Mathematics 080 (remove one unit of deficiency in Algebra II)
  • Mathematics 090 (remove one unit of deficiency in Geometry or Advanced Mathematics)
