		150 – 565	Math 113 or Math 210 or Math 211 [QR-A satisfied]
	566 - 595	566 - 850	Math 210 or 211 or 221 [QR-A satisfied]
	596 – 850	150 – 565	Math 113 or Math 210 or Math 211 or Math 113 and Math 221 (See Note 3) [QR-A satisfied]

Note 1: A 101 placement score also allows a student to take Math 141.

Note 2: A 114 placement score also allows a student to take the Math 171/217 sequence. If a student and his/her advisor feel Math 112 is more beneficial than Math 114, they should either take Math 112 in spring or determine if the student fits the priority profile for fall.

Note 3: To get permission for Math 113 and 221 concurrently, students need to get permission from a Math representative.
