All students are required to complete the first attempt of the math assessment, even those with AP, Dual or IB credit within one week of their orientation session. Please visit the ALEKS Math Placement Assessment website for general test information and click here for a breakdown of course placement test scores and the math class your major initially requires. Within 48 hours of registering for a session you will be eligible to take the math assessment.
Students are able to retake the math test up to three times but the first attempt should be completed as soon as possible. Students will need to complete a prep-and-learning module before they can test again.
If you were to change your major into a program of study that requires higher than Bradley Core Curriculum math, we need to have a score on file for you.
The assessment is housed in our Canvas course called “Starting Off”. The instructions with screenshots to access "Starting Off" are below. Please check your computer's setup and installation for Lockdown Browser. If you are having difficulty with the Lockdown Browser, please shut down and restart your computer to make sure no other programs are running besides the Lockdown Browser. It is recommended to take this assessment on a computer or tablet versus your phone. If these or other issues are preventing you from taking the assessment, please email the Academic Success Center at success@fsmail.bradley.edu for assistance.
