Mathematics Placement Exam

All incoming students are required to take a Mathematics Placement Exam (MPE). Students receive a recommendation concerning their first mathematics course based on the information they provide and their performance on the MPE.  Students should consult this recommendation and their academic advisor before enrolling in a mathematics course.

Course Selection Guidelines

Placement: Students who earn a score of 5 on the AB Advanced Placement exam, or a score of 4 or 5 on the BC Advanced Placement exam may receive credit for MTH 110  and MTH 112  . Students who earn a score of 3 or 4 on the AB Advanced Placement exam, or a score of 3 on the BC Advanced Placement exam, or a 6 or 7 on the Higher Level Math IB (International Baccalaureate) exam may receive credit for MTH 110. Students with a 4 or a 5 on the Advanced Placement Statistics exam may receive credit for

STA 104  .
