Math Placement Test: all students must take this test unless they have AP or dual enrollment credits which meet all required courses for the major.
< 40: must take MATH 095 before any other math course (credits do not count towards graduation)
> 40: eligible for MATH 155, MATH 160 (pre-requisite course for MATH 211)
> 75: eligible for all math courses including MATH 211 (Calculus I)
*you may need to take MATH 095 prior to taking MATH 155 requirement depending on Math Placement Test
One or two semesters of required Modern Language depends on Foreign Language Placement Exam.
