Welcome to the Math Department web site!
The Mathematics Department offers a variety of courses for students of all ability levels and interest.

Are you planning to take College Algebra (Math 121) or Intermediate Algebra (MATH 106)?
If you are planning to take these courses, the math department has prepared a self assessment exam that you can use to decide if you are ready for the course.
- Download a copy of the assessment test for the course you plan to take.
- Complete the self assessment.
- Compare your answers with the correct ones. If you didn't do well, you may wish to take a lower math course to prepare you for the course you need.
