The admissions counselor at COSC has not gotten back to me on which ALEKS course is the minimal acceptable to meet their math requirement. He sorta said it was dependant on what the school you transfer from offerred ? Made no sense really.
Anyone know if you need College Algebra (I think you do) or will Intermediate Algebra work ? Any experience with this issue ?
Thanks !

I'm always happy to complete the free application waiver for those applying to WGU (I get a free gift from WGU for this). Just PM me your first/last name and a valid email so I can complete their form.

I'm a student at EC. I looked a the COSC Catalog which says "Students will have an understanding of mathematics beyond the entry-level requirements for college. Examples: College-level Algebra or higher, Statistics."
That sounds like no to Intermediate Algebra.
FWIW Introductory Stats is so not as hard as College Algebra, that I would be surprised if that would fill the req by itself.

I can confirm that it's college algebra or above. What I ended up doing was about 35 total areas in ALEKS and then I decided to see if I had learned enough to CLEP out of math. Thankfully, I squeaked by with a 53 and that's all the math I need to do. I guess my point is that a little ALEKS + IC and feedback study = CLEP out of math
