Mathematics Competency

Mathematics competency is required of all A.A., A.S., A.A.S., B.B.A., B.T. and B.S. degree candidates. The requirement can be satisfied by any one of the following:

1. The student having been placed into MATH 101X or MATH 101, passing MATH 101X or MATH 101 with a “C–” (at least 69.5% average) or higher.

Note: Passing MATH 101X or MATH 101 with at least a “C–” SATISFIES the Mathematics Competency requirement, but DOES NOT SATISFY a mathematics requirement which may be necessary in the student's degree program.

2. The student achieving at least a 75 on the New York State Course III or MATH B regents.

3. The student passing a SUNY Cobleskill college-level mathematics course (a MATH course having at least 3 credits and a number of 103 or higher).

4. The registrar granting three or more transfer credits in college-level mathematics.

5. The registrar accepting Advanced Placement credit in mathematics (a score of 3 or higher).
