Changes to Math

Hi folks,

Registration starts in a few  weeks, and the class schedule will show up online soon.  I want to alert you to an important change in our developmental math sequence starting spring quarter.

Effective spring quarter, there is no more Math 080. Instead, students who have passed Math 070 or have an appropriate score on the Compass test will enter Math 098 Intermediate Algebra I.  (This is the same course that was offered as “new” math 080 Winter quarter.)

As a reminder, students who are enrolled in the “new” MATH 080 winter quarter may register for MATH& 107, MATH& 146, PHIL& 120, or ECON& 201 spring quarter.  Students who are in MATH 080 now may write to mathadvising@shoreline.edu for entry codes.

Updated information about our math courses and the new pathway, including a new flowchart, is available on the website.

Also, there is a video featuring Dean Susan Hoyne that explains these changes.

If you or your students have any questions, please contact me at scalaway@shoreline.edu or mathadvising@shoreline.edu.
