About the Summer Refresher Program

The Summer Algebra Refresher is a review of basic Algebra skills that are prerequisites for College Algebra or Statistics classes (Math 116, 115, 241, 105, 102). No part of those classes is covered in the program. All content will be provided through Canvas. Free virtual tutoring will be provided. The cost to the participants is $60. Upon completion of the program, participants will be given access to another attempt at the placement test and may test into a higher-level mathematics course. Participants are required to supply their ISU email at registration or they cannot be added to Canvas. The start date for the program is fluid but all participants must be signed up by July 12, 2024, and all program work must be completed by July 26, 2024. Once registered and payment is received, allow for two business days before having access to the content, all communication will go through campus email.

Additional preparation for trigonometry may also be provided, upon request (preparation for Calculus courses) by contacting the Math and Computer Science Department.

For more information, including information regarding content, please contact the Math and Computer Science Department at 812-237-2130 or email ISU-MathLab@indstate.edu
