If you are enrolled in either of the two SAL accelerated degree programs (Liberal Studies or Organizational Leadership), you must successfully complete MATH108, Discovery in Mathematics, to complete the math requirement for the degree. You must test into MATH108 by taking the math placement test for SAL students. If you do not achieve the minimum score on this test to qualify for MATH108, you must take SAL280, Topics in Math, and receive a final grade of "passing." Topics in Math is a non-credit course that will give you the necessary skills to perform in MATH108.
NOTE: This Web page relates only to the two SAL accelerated degree programs. Other degree programs offered through the University of Indianapolis have unique and varying math requirements to obtain a baccalaureate degree. Consult your Key Advisor for specific details.
The SAL dean cannot waive a university graduation requirement. Don't wait until you thought you were going to graduate to find out that you still have two math courses to go. The math requirement will not be waived. This could delay your graduation by as much as one full year.
If you intend to go on to a graduate business program (M.B.A., etc.) after completion of your undergraduate degree, we strongly recommend that you take MATH150, Finite Mathematics, and MATH220, Elementary Statistics, as an undergraduate student. These courses not only help qualify you for graduate admission but will help you prepare for the coursework involved in a graduate business program.
