Transfer students who have not taken classes to fulfill the Mathematical Thinking liberal education requirement, or are planning a major or program that requires math, may need to take a math placement test in order to register. The test(s) you take will depend on your proposed major program. Please contact your advisor as provided in your admissions letter for additional information.

Many transfer students do not need to take the chemistry placement exam because their program does not require it. Transfer students who plan to enroll in chemistry at the University of Minnesota should engage in the Chemistry Learning Modules for Placement regardless of prior chemistry credit. Please contact your advisor as provided in your admissions letter for additional information.
