    Default I have a question about a transfer credit.

    I didnt pass my placement exam at my school to take college algebra, I have to start out at pre algebra. However, I know algebra, its just I was a little rusty because I havent done it for so long. I know I can handle a college algebra class. Is there any way that I can take a college algebra class that will transfer to my school online? If so where and how do i do it. Do I have to take a placement exam with the online school? If so, Im ready-its just I could only take the test one time at my school. This would really help speed up the process since all I need is college algebra for my major.
    thanks
    jeremy

    I am enrolled at Thomas Edison State college, and there are no requirements to take college algebra.

    Just curious, are there any required math courses you need for your program?

    Yes, 3 credits. I am in the Bachelor of Arts track, so it can be any 100 level or above. I am almost finished with MAT105 which is essentially a combo of college math, pre-algebra, algebra, basic statistics, and consumer math.

    I believe the Bachelor of Science students must take pre-cal.
