What is intermediate algebra and why do I have to take it through a community college?
Intermediate Algebra allows students to strengthen their math skills and prepare for the math courses taught at ASU. ASU teaches math courses at the level of college algebra or above, so the university has a partnership with the Maricopa Community Colleges to offer the course on ASU’s campuses. The partnership also coordinates financial aid, billing and registration into a single process. Upon successful completion of Intermediate Algebra with a grade of “C” (2.00) or better, students will be permitted to enroll in the appropriate math course at ASU for their degree program. Note: Additional fees will be assessed on your ASU billing statement to cover the cost of Intermediate Algebra.
