For Intermediate Algebra (0005), a Math Placement score of 12 is needed. If you have a 22 or higher on the ACT math sub-score, or have earned at least a "C" in Intermediate Algebra at a 2-year or 4-year college, you would not need to take the UMSL Math Placement test to take an introductory math course, such as, Contemporary Math (1020) or College Algebra (1030). Score requirements for these courses and others may be found on the following web page: http://www.cs.umsl.edu/Schedule/math-prereqs.html


There will be Math Placement Exam Prep courses available in May 2013. This a non-credit course and the fee is $90.  Contact Diana Rehagen at 314-516-6590 to register.

This course is a refresher of the prerequisite material for students who need to take college algebra but need to review in order to place in the course and also to be more prepared for the course.
