Kansas Algebra Program

Prerequisites

Math 002

Any student whose Math ACT score is below 22 is placed in Math 002. KU does not offer a mathematics course below the level of Math 002. If your Math ACT score is below 16 or if it has been more than two years since your last algebra course, you are encouraged to prepare by self-study or enrollment in a beginning algebra course at a high school or community college.

Math 101

The prerequisite for Math 101 is two years of high school algebra and a minimum Math ACT score of 22. Successful completion of Math 002 or its equivalent, or a passing score on the Placement Exam is also acceptable. Students who do not meet these prerequisites will not be permitted to enroll in this class.
