All candidates
for the bachelor of arts or bachelor of science degree are required to
demonstrate minimum proficiency in mathematics by satisfying one of the
following criteria:
1. Successful completion, with a grade of C or better, of
21&62:640:103 Mathematics for the Liberal Arts, 112 or 113
College Algebra, or any more advanced course in mathematics offered by
the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science.

administered by the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science.
3. Successful completion, with a grade of C or better, of a
college-level, first-semester calculus course equivalent to
21&62:640:135 Calculus I, at another institution, or a grade of
B or better in a precalculus course equivalent to
21&62:640:114 or 119.
Students must meet the mathematics proficiency requirement in a timely manner, as follows:
All entering students who have not otherwise satisfied the proficiency
requirement before enrolling (#3 above) must either pass the math
proficiency exam before the end of the Add period of their first semester
of enrollment (#2 above), or enroll in the mathematics course
prescribed by the placement standards at the college, and continue to
enroll each and every semester until the requirement (as described in
#1 above) is satisfied.
The mathematics proficiency
requirement must be completed satisfactorily before the student
achieves senior standing. Students not adhering to these guidelines may
be required to carry a reduced credit load and to defer their probable
date of graduation.
