Students earning less than a score of 65 on the CMPT will be required to take pre-requisite MATH courses according to the score placement to get to the required STAT 2300 course. Transfer students presenting appropriate math credit(s) will be required to re-take appropriate math courses to their CMPT score placement to progress in Nursing.
STAT 2300 is the required math course for Nursing majors. There have been recent changes in math courses, specifically statistics. Students are encouraged to consult the math website for more information: http://people.clemson.edu/~ehepfer/Undergrad_Statistics/Stat_FlowChart.html
