PLACEMENT TESTING
All students entering USI for the first time without transfer credit to satisfy the mathematics component of the University Core Curriculum must take the math placement test prior to enrolling in a math course. Students with transfer credit for an intermediate algebra course from another institution will receive elective credits; however, the course will not be posted as Math 100. This policy is intended to help students succeed in mathematics courses at USI. If a student has successfully completed an introductory course and has achieved mastery of the material, he or she should place into Math 108 or Math 111. If, however, the student has not retained the material, it will be necessary for him/her to take a lower-level course at USI to satisfy the prerequisite for a course such as Math 108 or Math 111. The math placement test is administered through Academic Skills.

MATH 100/MATH101
The following students are required to take Math 100, Intermediate Algebra and Math 101, Intermediate Algebra Supplement:

Students who were placed into GENS 097 and were not successful (W or NP) on their first attempt must enroll in the expanded offering of Math100/101 once they have successfully completed GENS 097.
Students who have not earned a grade of C or better in Math 100 after two attempts must enroll in the expanded offering of Math100/101.

AUTHORIZATIONS
Only the Department of Mathematics can issue authorizations for overrides into MATH courses. For questions regarding mathematics courses, mathematics placement, authorizations into restricted courses, or petitions for closed classes, contact Dr. Kathy Rodgers, Chair.
