MATH-1240 will be accepted to meet the Math requirement for the Physical Therapist Assisting Program for students admitted to the program through Fall 2025.  Students seeking admission to the program in Fall 2026 and later will be required to complete MATH-1410 as a prerequisite course.

MATH-1140, MATH-1141, MATH-1200, MATH-1270, and MATH-1280 can no longer count towards fulfilling the college-level mathematics requirement.  These courses were re-classified as developmental mathematics by the state of Ohio in 2016.  Tri-C established a 5-year transitioning window for students who had completed these courses prior to 2016 to apply them towards meeting graduation requirements, which expired in Summer 2021. It is highly recommended to see a counselor to determine the appropriate math required for your current major.
