At or after FY orientation, if you think a student should be enrolled in a course, but was dropped or didn't get it, it may be because
they already have credit that was verified through the Math Placement Office. Check their Next Steps Center Math Placement message if you are not sure.
Other MPLF scores
- MPLF 50 means the student did not have a placement a few days prior to orientation and is a Math 100 placement. This is required for pre-scheduling of Math 196B.
- MPLF scores look like SAT scores (400, 500, 520, etc.)
- Other MPLF scores that don't look like a SAT score are based on ACT MATH scores. For example, MPLF 647 might look strange, but it is based on an ACT MATH score in the Math 113, 116, 120R score range since is it above 640. If you see a strange looking score for a FY student, you should just check their math placement in the Next Steps Center proxy or compare it to the placement range here. For Fall incoming FY students, you can view their placement in the Next Steps Center.
