PLACE/MATH scores will only appear and be valid for students enrolled prior to Fall 2010.
ALEKS/MATHA and ALEKS/MATHB tests are no longer administered, but scores earned on those tests while they were in use are still acceptable as mathematics placement. Students with ALEKS/MATHA and/or ALEKS/MATHB test scores are NOT required to take the new test, ALEKS/MATHC.
The ALEKS/MATHC test is the mathematics placement test that is currently being offered.
MAT 110 (College Algebra) is no longer offered at NAU, but can be transferred to NAU from other institutions. Please visit the Math Placement Website, Mathplacement.nau.edu for more information about the courses for which MAT 110 can serve as the prerequisite.
