Step 2: Set up an appointment with your academic advisor before orientation
If we know you're going to be completing a major in CSM, we are going to be reaching out to students via orientation rosters before orientation. But, you don't have to wait for us to reach out to you! Please go ahead and schedule an appointment with your advisor!
Step 3: Math is Important
Your starting place for math might change what science courses you have available to you during your first semester at KSU. All majors in CSM require at least up to MATH 1190 Calculus I in the degree requirements.
Your High School information dictates your potential starting place.
MATH 1111 College Algebra: Anyone can start here, but you might be able to start higher! MATH 1113 Precalculus: You can start here if you have a SAT MATH score of 570 or above
(ACT MATH 23 or above) AND a high school GPA of 2.8 or above MATH 1190 Calculus I: You can start here if you have a SAT MATH score of 620 or above
(ACT MATH 26 or above) AND a high school GPA of 3.2 or above
Not happy with your Math placement based on HS information? Take ALEKS!
**Please email your academic advisor if you have questions about ALEKS or need to
get the ALEKS code**
