ACT/SAT or Accuplacer Exam

• ACT/SAT or Accuplacer Exam scores can only be used for placement within TWO years. Scores expire two years after the test day.

AP Exam

• If you took the exam more than two years ago you can either take a Math Boot Camp to renew your placement or talk to an Undergraduate Advisor about placement.
• If you are placing into a math class with IB scores, we are still evaluating those on an individual basis. Please email the advisor with any questions.

Transfer Credit

• All math courses taken at another institution must receive a C grade or better
• If the course is taken outside of Utah, you will also need to submit the Transfer Course Evaluation Form

The Accuplacer is a computer-based test, and this allows it to be adaptive to your particular skill level. For example, if you do well on the first questions, it may skip questions that may be too easy for you, and move directly on to a more difficult type of question. For more information, click here.

Math Refersher Boot Camps are one week review workshops offered prior to or at the beginning of Fall and Spring semester. For more information, click here.

If you are unable to register for a math class without a permission code, review the information found here to determine what steps you need to take.

AP Lab Notebooks may be used to fulfill the General Chemistry labs (CHEM 1215 or CHEM 1225). Students will need to contact a Chemistry Academic Advisor for information on how to get your AP Lab Notebook evaluated.

If a class is full when a student registers, wait listing allows a student to add their name to an electronic wait list and potentially be added to the class if space opens up, and they meet all the requirements. Wait listing is not a guarantee to enrollment into a class. For information on how to get on a waiting list, click here.

All students should be familiar with My Degree Dashboard. My Degree Dashboard is a platform that helps you stay on track for graduation. In My Degree Dashboard, there are two very handy tools, audits and plans. Audits show you what classes you still need before you can graduate! Your degree audit is an automated report that matches the courses you have completed with the requirements of the major. Your degree audit will also show any test scores or transfer courses, you have sent to the University of Utah in addition to your U of U course history. Plans can help you plan your semesters in advance so you can rest easy knowing you’re on track for graduation! You can avoid that last minute scramble to figure out which classes you should register for by creating a semester-by-semester plan. Once you have built your plan, your advisor can review it with you to make sure you’re on the right path. You can even run an audit with your planned courses!
