Math 193 Online Information

Thinking about taking MATH 193 at St. Cloud State University in the online format?

You should first ask yourself whether the online course is really for you. The mathematics department intends the course for nontraditional (defined in a loose way) non-elementary education students since it is so much more likely to see students succeed in the on campus version of the course and since we are (obviously) interested in student success. This is why special permission from me is required to enroll in the course.

In addition to special permission (for which I will need you to email me your SCSU student ID#), there are prerequisites to the course [An ACT math score of at least 21 or an ACCUPLACER score of at least 70 or MATH 070 or the equivalent]. More information about math placement at SCSU can be found at http://www.stcloudstate.edu/mathplacement/.

To the left you will find some materials that will give you a little more information about the online MATH 193 course. I hope they help give you an idea of what to expect. If you would like to talk with me in person, feel free to give me a call at 320-308-3002 or, better yet, email me questions at drbuske [at] stcloudstate [dot] edu. I want to be sure you get into the right course. Math 193 online isn't the right choice for everyone. Use the advice of former students to decide if it is right for you.
