Credit for ALEKS Corp (McGraw Hill) Online courses in College Algebra & Statistics
Hi artcoffeewords!

EC has a Mathematics Restriction on page 17 of the 2008 Liberal Arts Catalog which says in part - “No more than three courses on the semester-hour system . . . of mathematics credit below the level of calculus may be applied to any degree. Representative titles of math courses below the level of calculus include College Math, College Algebra, Elementary Functions, Modern Math, Fundamentals of Algebra, Trigonometry, and Precalculus.”

The way I read these policies I think I could have credits for College Math CLEP (6), College Algebra (3), and Precalculus (3) that would count towards a degree. Then Statistics may count separately.

I have not checked this with EC, yet, but have discussed this on the board.

Hope this helps.

[Update: Statistics does count as math, but it does not count toward the 3 courses below calculus policy. Statistics through ALEKS counts as upper-level credit, and can be used to fulfill a depth in math.]
[Update: College Math CLEP (6 credits) counts as 2 courses below the level of Calculus. Three levels of math through ALEKS (9 LL credits) plus Statistics through ALEKS (3 UL credits) would be the least expensive way to complete a depth in Math.]
