Math Placement
Who needs to take the Math Placement Exam?
All new freshmen must complete the Math Placement exam to determine their starting point in math. Any continuing or transfer student wishing to take Calculus or a course on the Calculus track (ex: College Algebra, Pre-Calculus) must demonstrate readiness for the course. Students must either:
- Take the Math Placement Exam. For information on when the exam is offered, please visit http://www.umb.edu/academics/vpass/uac/testing_services/math.
- Complete the pre-requisite math course (time and grade restrictions apply). For details, visit the Math Department website.
Be sure to study before taking the Math Placement Exam. Practice Tests are available online.
