Math Placement
Please check the requirements of your major before enrolling in any math course.
Note that MATH 096 is the lowest math course offered at the University of Nevada, Reno. If you do not have an SAT math score of 470 or greater or an ACT math score of 17 or greater, you should consult with Truckee Meadows Community College for further diagnostic testing and entrance into MATH 091, 093 or 095. MATH 091, 093 and 095 are not offered at the University of Nevada, Reno. The University of Nevada, Reno Math Center is located in the Ansari Business Building, Room 639.

To enroll in:

• core MATH 120, you must have an ACT of 21 or greater, have an SAT of 510 or greater, or pass MATH 096 with a grade of “C” or better.
• noncore MATH 126 as preparation for core MATH 127, core STAT 152 or core MATH 176, you must have an ACT of 22 or greater, have an SAT of 520 or greater, or pass MATH 096 with a grade of “C” or better.
• core MATH 127, MATH 128, core STAT 152 or core MATH 176, you must have an ACT of 27 or greater, have an SAT of 610 or greater, or pass MATH 126 with a grade of “C-” or better.
• core MATH 181, you must have an ACT of 28 or greater, have an SAT of 630 or greater, or pass MATH 127 or MATH 128 with a grade of “C-” or better.

NOTE: Sequencing rules in effect for many MATH courses numbered 128 and higher prohibit students from earning credit for a lower numbered MATH course after receiving credit for a higher numbered MATH course. Sequencing rules are included in course descriptions where applicable.

NOTE: For initial placement in a MATH/STAT course, ACT or SAT scores will be used. Students may also take an appropriate placement test as determined by the MATH/STAT department. If you are blocked from enrolling in MATH 120, 126, 127, 128, 176, 181 or STAT 152, please visit www.unr.edu/mathcenter/placement.html for placement information.
