Entry Points for Mathematics Courses

If you are a degree-seeking student, you are required to use your ACT mathematics score or to take the COMPASS placement test in order to be admitted to a mathematics course.

Arrangements to take the COMPASS mathematics placement test are made with the Student Success Center, 351.3594. The Student Success Center also provides more details about the placement system.

Students who feel their placement test score is not indicative of their abilities in mathematics or feel they were placed into a course level too low should appeal their placement to the Department of Mathematical Sciences (351.3301) at the earliest possible date.
