All incoming freshmen admitted to the College of Engineering at Texas A&M University — regardless of AP credit, dual credit or any other credit you may have — must take the Math Placement Exam 4 (MPE4) in an online, proctored setting via Zoom prior to their New Student Conference. If you require testing accommodations, you must submit an accommodations request two weeks prior to your scheduled testing date.
Fall 2024 admits must reserve their Math Placement Exam date by registering here.
Scores earned on the online proctored exam (offered by the College of Engineering) are used to place new students in the appropriate level math course (see course placement tables below). To register for MATH 151 Engineering Mathematics I, the first required math course for a Bachelor of Science degree in engineering, a student must earn an MPE4 score of 22 (67%) or greater. Students enrolled in Texas A&M Engineering at Blinn will take equivalent math courses through Blinn College.
