      • Before attending your FSU Orientation session complete the FSU Orientation Pre-Advising Survey to report any IB/AP/AICE or Dual Enrollment credits you will be receiving. (Check your FSU email if you have not completed the survey already)
      • This form is used to help our advisors prepare for your orientation advising session
      • It is IMPORTANT to list ALL courses you may receive credit for even if you think you failed the exam/course
      • All Freshmen entering the IMS Program who intend to register for MAC1140 Pre-Calculus, MAC1114 Trigonometry, or MAC2311 Calculus I as their first mathematics course at FSU.
      • If students have already received college credit for MAC2311 Calculus I through AP/IB/AICE they should visit this website for special guidance regarding taking the ALEKS exam.
      • Students need a strong math foundation for many of the classes you will be taking in the future. Without the strong foundation you run the risk of struggling in more complex classes, such as organic chemistry.
