Mathematics Summer Immersion Program

The Mathematics Undergraduate Summer Immersion Program is open to new Freshmen and incoming Transfer students whose mathematics placement is below college level or slightly deficient. It provides an opportunity for students to take courses which, if successfully completed in the summer, will advance their mathematics standing. In many cases, to a college level math course.  Continuing students may also enroll in this program through SAAC.

Students who need to take these courses will be contacted by the college and will be provided registration information. This is a tuition-free program (students are required to purchase the text).  Students who enroll in this program may not take any courses in the second summer session program.

The program begins just after the July 4 holiday, concludes six weeks later in mid-August, and is offered in both the day and evening. The day program includes regular classroom instruction, tutoring and computer assisted instruction. The evening component has longer classroom instruction as it does contain tutoring or computer assisted instruction.
