Depending on their score, they could be placed in MATH 0123 (Elementary Algebra) or MATH 0133 (Intermediate Algebra) or college level math. Students may have the option to re-test.

Although NSU does not provide placement testing on the Broken Arrow campus, it is still very important to determine if the student has a need for remediation and a plan for remediation if necessary. If a student has never completed a quantitative analysis class in college (college level math, programming, etc), ACT scores will be requested (a 19 in math waives the deficiency). If they never completed a college level math class and don't have ACT scores ... they are considered to have a math deficiency.
Since Northeastern does not offer zero-level course work at Broken Arrow, students must remediate through Tulsa Community College. Once the student provides proof that they have completed Intermediate Algebra or higher, they must contact the FYE Center.
