Q. How can I register for and take a math placement exam?

A. If you don't have an account, create one by registering at the CASA Registration Page. After creating your account, please wait approximately 24 hours for your eligibility to be approved (remember that the math placement exam is intended for incoming freshman students). After the 24 hour waiting period, please log in to your account and choose 'Math Placement' from the 'Course Listing' section. Within the 'Math Placement' section you will have access to practice exams, as well as topic-by-topic videos and quizzes to help you prepare for the placement exams. When you’re ready to take the test, select 'Online Placement Exams' and follow the instructions provided.

Q. I scored below 80% on the online Calculus 1 Placement Exam. How do I schedule a second attempt during orientation?

If you are already registered for a New Student Orientation conference, select the date corresponding to the first day of your conference, then select the 9:00AM time slot (unless instructed otherwise by an advisor).
