All incoming freshmen without AP credit and transfer students still needing to meet their math requirement are expected to take the online placement test (called ALEKS) before registering for a math course.
Visit UM’s Math Placement website: www.umt.edu/mathplacement
You will need to know your student ID number as well as the ALEKS UM Course Code: MAHXU XDVMA
Once you have taken the test, write down your score (1, 2, 3, 4, or Out of 4) and contact your academic advisor for assistance determining the appropriate math course to register for. If you do not know who your advisor is, contact the department office of your academic major.
