6.6. I took a placement test at my other college. Can I use those results for placement at the U of A?

If you have an ALEKS PPL score from another institution that was completed within the last year, we might allow that score to be used for registration.

  • The PPL Assessment would have to be proctored, allow 3 hours or less to complete the test, and have similar rules to our PPL Assessment.

If you have an ALEKS PPL score, you can request to have the score sent to U of A through the ALEKS PPL system.

  • Log into your ALEKS PPL account for your previous instituiton.
  • Look under MY CLASSES to find the results you want to share.
  • Open the menu in the top right corner (three dots) and select SEND RESULTS.   
  • Select University of Arizona Main Campus.  

If you are not able to do this, you can download a full copy of your score report and send it to the Math Placement Office.    It must show your full name, your score, the test date, and indicate that the exam was proctored.  

We only accept PPL scores as described above. We do not use other math placement exams for placement into our courses.

← My major requires MATH 125, but what if I only place into MATH 122A/B. Is that a problem? I took the U of A Math Placement Test back when I was a freshman, but I have not yet taken any math courses. Do I need to take the Math Placement Test again? →
