The test (ALEKS PPL Math Placement Assessment) is live! Thanks to everyone who worked on this!
<br>
I will email students participating in the Seattle Orientation today. <br>
<br>
<b><span style="font-family:"Courier New"">Next Steps Center: </span></b><span style="font-family:"Courier New""><br>
The Math Placement Assessment is now available through the Next Steps Center for Incoming students.<br>
The Math portion of the proxy should be available soon, but you can view it for freshmen through

<span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Courier New"">Freshmen need to read their initial SAT/ACT placement and are encouraged to the the ALEKS PPL<br>
Assessment if the SAT/ACT placement does not qualify the student for the foundation math requirement
<br>
based on the student's current major. There is also a retesting recommendation if the ALEKS PPL score<br>
is not at the level of the student's foundation math requirement.<br>
<br>
After the PPL score is processed into the UA system (8am, noon, 4pm, 6pm, 8pm), the placement message<br>
is updated and the student then has access to a free Prep and Learning Module through their Next Steps Center<br>
for review before retesting. <br>
<br>
Transfer students determine if they need to test (need Calc I or below and do not have a recent prerequisite).<br>
<br>
<b>Current students:<br>
</b>Testing is available through Examity. Can email <a href="mailto:placement@math.arizona.edu">
placement@math.arizona.edu</a> for instructions on how to access<br>
the D2L course to access Examity proctoring, or can view the details at <br>

Examity requires access to a webcam with a microphone. The testing session is recorded.
<br>
<br>
Certain calculators are allowed. The test should take 60-90 minutes, but student are given 3 hours to complete the test.
<br>
Students will need to create a profile in Examity, load a photo id, and schedule a testing appointment. On demand testing
<br>
(testing right away) is available through the Examity access through the Next Steps Center without any additional fees.

Math 100 registration for current students:<br>
</b>Since we no longer have Math 100AX, we are allowing any current students to register for Math 100 through UAccess, even if test scores<br>
are expired or placed a student into Math 100AX. After priority registration, entry into Math 100 will be through the Math Department to<br>
avoid any potential conflicts with the S4S cohorts. Students can contact <a href="mailto:placement@math.arizona.edu">
placement@math.arizona.edu</a> . <b><br>
