Fulfillment via High School Courses:
3 units of college-preparatory mathematics that include the topics covered in elementary and advanced Algebra and two- and three-dimensional geometry; a fourth year of math is strongly recommended. A Geometry course or an integrated math course with a sufficient amount of geometry content must be completed. Approved integrated math courses may be used to fulfill part or all of this requirement, as may math courses taken in the seventh and eighth grades if the high school accepts them as equivalent to its own courses.

All students must complete a geometry course or integrated math with geometry content (e.g., Math II). One transferable college course will not satisfy the full three-year math requirement.

Fulfillment via Exam:
AP: Score of 3 or higher on the AP Calculus AB or Calculus BC exam, or a score of 4 or higher on the AP Precalculus exam satisfies two years of the requirement (but not geometry).

IB: Score of 5 or higher on the IB Mathematics HL Analysis and Approaches exam satisfies two years of the requirement (but not geometry).

Fulfillment via Community College / University:
Three semester (4 quarter) units of non-transferable college courses in elementary Algebra, Geometry, intermediate Algebra or Trigonometry, with a grade of C or better, satisfy one year each of the math requirement. Grade of C or better in a transferable mathematics course of at least 3 semester (4 quarter) units that has advanced Algebra or the equivalent as a prerequisite satisfies two years of the requirement (but not Geometry).
