Math Course Placement
Math Course
What math courses do I need?
All undergraduate students must fulfill the Compass Curriculum Quantitative Reasoning requirement, and any MATH course numbered 1040 or higher satisfies this requirement. Individual colleges at UCCS have further quantitative reasoning requirements, and various majors require specific mathematics courses. Please check with your academic advisor to be sure about the most appropriate courses for you.
The video below discusses the content and goals of the currently offered entry-level mathematics courses, namely MATH 99, MATH 1040, MATH 1060, MATH 1120, MATH 1330, and MATH 1350.
How do I register?
There are four main ways that a student can place into their first MATH course: previously earned credits, high school GPA and courses, ACT/SAT scores, and the Accuplacer exam. The tiles below describe these in more detail, and provide links for further information.
