Course Descriptions:


All of the courses in the Developmental Math program cover a combined elementary and intermediate algebra curriculum.  The content is covered in several formats including both a one and a two-semester review.  Students who complete any of the following will have satisfied the ELM requirement and be eligible to enroll in a GE math course.  An additional placement test is required by the Math Department for those wishing to take Math 19 or Math 30.

Courses that complete the ELM requirement:

o Math 3A or 6A plus Math 3B or 6B
o Math 3R
o Math 6L
o Math 6D
