Math Placement

Registrants for the math courses Mat 108, Math 115, and Math 222 are currently computer screened to determine if they have met the prerequisites. There are three possible ways for a student to satisfy a course's prerequisites:

  • Score sufficiently high on the Math Placement Exam given in Testing Services at ICC
  • Take the prerequisite course at ICC and make a grade of C or better
  • Transfer records to ICC indicating the student has met the prerequisite at another accredited college

The Math, Science, and Engineering Department makes a sincere effort to correctly place students into the appropriate math class. If a student is unable to meet a course prerequisite, that student should not enroll for the course or expect to have the prerequisites waived.
