The Entry Level Mathematics Requirement
The ELM placement test assesses entry-level mathematics skills that the CSU expects entering students to have acquired in three years of rigorous college-preparatory mathematics coursework. Such courses must include the topics covered in elementary and intermediate algebra and two- and three-dimensional geometry, whether offered in traditional or integrated mathematics courses. All entering students must take the ELM placement test unless they have demonstrated proficiency in mathematics on the CSU's Early Assessment Program (EAP) in mathematics, SAT, ACT, or Advanced Placement exams (see list below) prior to placement in appropriate university mathematics coursework. This is the ELM requirement. Those who are not exempt must take the ELM placement test prior to enrollment in the CSU. Failure to comply with this requirement will prevent the student from enrolling in the university. Specific policies regarding retesting and placement are determined by each campus. Exemptions from the placement test are given only to those students who can present proof of one of the following: placement in the "Ready for CSU college-level mathematics courses" category on the Early Assessment Program (EAP) taken in conjunction with the 11th grade California Standards Test in High School Mathematics or Algebra II placement in the "Ready for CSU college-level mathematics courses - Conditional" category on the Early Assessment Program (EAP) taken in conjunction with the 11th grade California Standards Test in High School Mathematics or Algebra II PLUS successful completion of a CSU-approved math or appropriate math-related course or activity taken before enrolling at a CSU campus a score of 550 or above on the mathematics portion of the College Board SAT Reasoning Test a score of 550 or above on a College Board SAT Subject Test in Mathematics (level 1 or level 2) a score of 23 or above on the ACT Mathematics Test taken October 1989 or later
a score of 3 or above on the College Board Advanced Placement Mathematics examination (Calculus AB or Calculus BC) a score of 3 or above on the College Board Advanced Placement Statistics examination completion and transfer to the CSU of a college course that satisfies the requirement in Quantitative Reasoning provided such a course was completed with a grade of C or better.
