New incoming students admitted for the spring semester, with test optional, and who wish to take a course in the prior summer or fall semester MUST take ALEKS prior to submitting a request for evaluation on MATES.
You must include ALL of the following information.
- The full syllabus for the course completed. The syllabus must include specific topics covered, textbook used, grading policies, etc. You may also include a schedule of lectures, if available.
