Math requirement, Depths and Area of focus - marquardt21 - 07-24-2013
I plan on getting a BSLS from Excelsior College. After checking my current credits I have 90 so far. I have searched the forum but can not find out what level of math is acceptable for this degree. It just says on Excelsior 's website " A minimum of two credits must be in mathematics and two credits must be in natural sciences" my current level of math is new college math.
Also what test have people used to satisfy the area of focus for the Admin/management area. My depth will be in history.
Thanks for you help

I'm in the same boat. I have posted questions about excelsiors math requirements. I have a friend that says his was accepted and have read on here that beginning algebra is accepted which i plan on taking at aleks.
If you get any further information not posted on here please PM me. I plan on calling an advisor next week. Jayboy

Quote:Mathematics Restriction
Arithmetic courses and courses that have been designated as developmental or remedial may not be used toward your degree.
No more than three courses of mathematics credit below the level of calculus may be applied to any degree.
One of the three courses or examinations preceding calculus may be of an elementary level.
Representative titles of math courses below the level of calculus include
College Math, College Algebra, Elementary Functions, Modern Math, Fundamentals of Algebra, Trigonometry, and Precalculus.
and I'm going to put a link to
FreeMyPDF.com - Removes passwords from viewable PDFs
because for some really ridiculous reason Excelsior locks all their pdfs so you can't copy anything out of them
but thankfully that site let's you unlock the pdf
so I could copy and paste instead of having to type it all in
I just went to Excelsior, downloaded the catalog, went to that site and chose "Choose File" and "Do it!"
the only thing I downloaded from them was the unlocked file, so it seems safe
