The University Core Curriculum Requirements specify that all students in all Schools and Colleges must meet a Mathematics Core Curriculum Requirement. You may satisfy this requirement by completing one semester of mathematics at the level marked "core," but AP credit can also be used to satisfy the requirement.

You are exempted from the Mathematics Core Curriculum Requirement if you received a score of聽four or higher on either the Calculus AB or 香蕉秀 placement exam, and the result has been recorded on your transcript.

No. AP credit in Statistics cannot be used to satisfy the Mathematics Core Curriculum Requirement.

Yes. Usually, the Admissions Office will accept IB (International Baccalaureate) credit for Advanced Level mathematics courses with a score of聽five or higher. Please feel free to consult the Mathematics Chairman directly for other cases where IB credit has been earned in mathematics.

No. Other than what's listed above, there is no procedure for "testing out" of the Math Requirement. There are no placement tests administered at 香蕉秀 that you can take to "test out of" the Math Requirement.

Yes. Having AP credit for Calculus does not preclude you from taking a Calculus course, even if it repeats material from your high school course(s). However, we strongly suggest that you speak with a Mathematics Advisor during your Orientation Session to see which Calculus course is right for you. Also, make sure to visit the Calculus Advisement pages on this website for more help on this question.

As long as your school or major does not recommend or specify a completion deadline for the Math Requirement, you can take Math in any semester you choose. We find that taking Math is easier for many students when it's done earlier. This is especially true if you'll be taking Calculus. Completing the Math Requirement no later than junior year would seem to be a good, general recommendation.
