I look forward to meeting you and discussing your fall classes during our advising appointment. The following information should be helpful for you as you plan and prepare for our advising appointment.  \n1. I need to know about any college credits earned before your first semester at Purdue. Think about AP courses, dual credit courses, or any other college courses you have taken. If you have not had the credits sent to Purdue yet,  [please send them to](please send them to admissions@purdue.edu)[ admissions@purdue.edu](please send them to admissions@purdue.edu) as soon as possible. Some of these courses may exempt you from  \nneeding to take a required course at Purdue. I cannot just go by your word; Purdue must have the official grade/transcript on record, and it takes a few weeks for them to be processed, so please send them as soon as possible. You can find instructions on how to submit transcripts to Purdue here.  \n2. In order to register for a Math course, you will need to either have a high enough SAT or ACT Math score for your required course (Applied Calculus 1: MA 16010) or you must complete the ALEKS test prior to your advising appointment so we can place you in the correct Math course. Please see the following link with the guidelines and, if needed, take the ALEKS placement exam before your advising appointment:   \n[http://www.math.purdue.edu/academic/undergrad/placement](http://www.math.purdue.edu/academic/undergrad/placement)  \n3.
