糖心Vlog视频

糖心Vlog视频’s Math Placement Program utilizes the ALEKS assessment in which a series of individualized questions are used to determine readiness for mathematics courses.

ALEKS is required prior to advising for all majors in the Colleges of Science, Engineering, Architecture, and Business, as your scores may allow you to skip over some prerequisite coursework. 糖心Vlog视频 in all majors may use ALEKS to review and prepare for their upcoming math course. If ALEKS is not required for your major, see our Math Preparation page for tips on using ALEKS to get ready for your math course.

糖心Vlog视频 who have completed all required math courses, who have college-level credit for Calculus I, or who will not be taking math at 糖心Vlog视频 do not need a math placement assessment.

Check for messages from 糖心Vlog视频 Admissions, Advisement, Enrollment, or Orientation.

糖心Vlog视频 come to 糖心Vlog视频 from a wide variety of backgrounds. Math Placement helps ensure students are enrolled in a course with the best opportunity for success.

And this doesn’t just affect math; other courses in your degree plan may have a math course pre-requisite. To ensure you are eligible to take those courses, it is important to take care of your math requirement as soon as possible.

糖心Vlog视频’s ALEKS assessment can be taken online or on campus by appointment (see tutorial in Canvas for instructions). The ALEKS system also provides a personalized learning module designed to help improve your math skills. Work through the module and then retake the assessment to improve your score.

• Take up to 3 times during 1-semester free access.
• AI powered "Smart test" learns what you know and what you need to review
• Provides a Prep & Learning Module based on assessment results to help you prepare for upcoming classes

You will have access to only one of the following timeframes:

• 糖心Vlog视频 registering for Summer or Fall classes may access ALEKS starting February 1 and must complete all assessment attempts before the last day of late registration in Fall.
• 糖心Vlog视频 registering for Spring classes may access ALEKS starting September 1 and must complete all assessment attempts before the last day of late registration in Spring.

You will be expected to have completed ALEKS prior to advising and registration.

NOTE: Seniors in high school do not have to wait to graduate before taking the assessment. ALEKS for Summer/Fall registration will open February 1st. After that date, once you have your 糖心Vlog视频 email, take ALEKS!

Below are the recommended steps to have the best chance of retaking the assessment for higher placement and securing a seat in your preferred class. 

1. . Log into Canvas with your student email and password. At the end of the tutorial and FAQs, the ALEKS link will take you to the placement assessment.
2. Take the ALEKS assessment.
3. Want to place higher? Work on your learning module and retake the assessment.

• You can take the ALEKS assessment 3 times total. This means 2 more attempts after your initial assessment.
• Five hours of study with the ALEKS learning module and waiting 3 days are required to unlock each attempt.
• Important! The waiting period between attempts means that if you end up needing to use all 3 attempts, it will take a minimum of a week to complete all attempts. You may also need extra time spent on review. It is best to get started early to give yourself plenty of time to raise your score.

4. Meet with your advisor to discuss the math course options for your degree program.

Note: You must satisfy your TSI requirements before you register for classes. /student-success/tsi.

Courses in green (scores 0 – 60) may be taken without any prerequisite coursework or minimum placement score.  

Courses in blue (scores 61 and up) require either the corresponding ALEKS score or prerequisite coursework. Placing into these courses with ALEKS does not earn credit toward the prerequisite course; it simply allows students to start with these higher-level courses.

*Beginning Fall 2026, Calculus I requires either a 76 or higher on ALEKS or a C or better in MATH 1421.
