Which Math Course Should I Take?

If you are undecided about your major, but have good math skills and are interested in taking math, science, and computer science courses, you are encouraged to take the math placement test for calculus, MATH 113.

Other students are advised to take the placement test for MATH 110. Your scores will indicate your readiness for these courses. Students are urged to consult with an academic advisor to help decide which math course would be best for them.

MATH 106, MATH 111 and STAT 250 do not require a placement test.
