Math- & science-based learning support

Exemption for MATH courses

Have you been exempted from taking any of the following prerequisite courses such as MATH 201, 203, 204, 205, 206, 208 and 209 and qualified to take the next level course? Given the cumulative nature of all problem-solving courses, if your knowledge in the prerequisite course is not strong enough (even if you have been exempted from taking it at Concordia), you may struggle in your next level course
