Leveling Work: 0-6 Hours

As a rule, students with ACT math scores 27 and below (SAT Math 640 and below) need leveling work before taking MATH 201 . Students with ACT Math scores 24 and below (SAT Math 580 and below) should take MATH 151  (4 hours) and MATH 152  (2 hours); those with ACT Math scores between 25 and 27 (SAT Math between 590 and 640) should take MATH 171  (5 hours). Leveling work decreases the hours of electives.

Remaining Bible/Electives: 17 Hours
