Math placement at the 91次元 (UM) is based on a combination of these criteria:
- ACT or SAT Math scores
- Pre-requisite courses (e.g. dual enrollment, AP/IB/etc., transfer courses, other college-level equivalents)
- High school GPA and senior year math courses
Students who do not place into math courses by the above criteria will utilize EdReady Montana to determine placement level.
Next steps for completing EdReady placement:
- All admitted undergraduate students who need to complete the EdReady placement in order to register for math courses at UM will be contacted via email.
- Watch for an email from EdReady Montana with detailed instructions on how to complete math placement requirements.
- Please do not complete the Maplesoft math placement exams in Moodle unless you are instructed to do so.
Once you complete the initial placement diagnostic, EdReady Montana generates a customized study plan to provide an opportunity for you to learn, fill in any gaps, and improve your placement level.
