General Education Waivers for English and Mathematics,
and the High School Science Verification

Waivers for English and Mathematics

Students may confirm that they qualify for English or mathematics waivers by checking their Academic Transcripts under their my.emich accounts or by seeing their academic advisors. (Waivers do not include credit. The student must make up waivers through other academic efforts.)

  • If the ACT English score is 29 or above or the SAT Verbal score is 640 or above, a student may waive the first Written Composition requirement.
  • If the ACT Mathematics score is 23 or above or the SAT Mathematics score is 580 or above, a student may waive the Mathematics Reasoning requirement.

If students want written verification of either the English or mathematics waiver, they should take a copy of their ACT or SAT scores to the Academic Advising Center, 301 Pierce.

High School Science Verification

Students who submit proof of having successfully completed one year of high school chemistry or physics may request written confirmation at the Academic Advising Center, 301 Pierce. This recognition of high school work in physical science results in additional options (not a waiver) from which to select a course to fulfill the General Education physical science requirement. Students may confirm that they have fulfilled the chemistry or physics verification by checking their Academic Transcripts under their my.emich accounts or by seeing their academic advisors.
