Math Placement Test

All incoming first-year and transfer students need to take the Math placement test as soon as possible.

Students should see the Math placement test in their list of courses in Blackboard. If an incoming student does not see the link or if a student did not take the placement test in their first year, they will need to submit a technology work order (view instructions below on submitting a technology work order) to gain access to the test.

Results will be available through Self Service (Student Planning) under Test Scores within two business days.  To see how your score corresponds to particular courses, click below to see the Math placement grid.
