5.2. Math courses taken at another institution
Math Placement, PPL, & Transfer Credit / Math Courses & Registration → Registration → Math courses taken at another institution
Many math courses at other institutions will transfer as U of A Math courses.
Check how your math courses will transfer on our Math Transfer Webpage.
For transfer courses that will serve as a prerequisite for a subsequent U of A course:
If your transfer course is below the level of Calculus I, you will need to complete the course BEFORE you're able to register for the subsequent course at the U of A. Once your grade has posted, contact the Math Placement Office with a PDF of your unofficial transcript showing the name of the institution, your name, course, semester, and grade (must be C or better).
Be sure to include your U of A student ID number when you send the email. Once we verify the course and grade, we can open enrollment into the next course.
If your transfer course is Calculus I or higher, you will still need to provide proof of successful completion to the Math Placement Office before the start of your U of A class, but you may be able to enroll in the next U of A course before your transfer course is complete. Contact the Math Placement Office with this request.
