Newly admitted 91丝瓜视频 students may earn a course exemption from one or more basic science courses by taking an admission placement exam before starting classes.听
If you feel that you've completed the equivalent of one or more university-level science courses, but do not have acceptable certification to that effect, you may be eligible to write admission placement exams in biology, chemistry, math, or physics.
Students who pass the placement exam for biology, chemistry, or physics must pass the corresponding lab course听if they did not study in a formal course that included laboratory work meeting the relevant department's approval.
Note: There is a non-refundable application fee for each exam. Once your application has been received, your student account will be charged automatically. Applicants have the option of not writing the placement exam(s) once they have applied; however, the application fee will not be refunded. Science Placement exams are open to newly-admitted students only, and must be written the semester they are admitted.听Please note that the Science Placement exams will be听offered as online exams, with the exception of those for MATH courses, which will be held in person.
