<p>I ended up only taking 3.5 units of math for certain reasons. According to them, I need another half unit that builds upon algebra II. I was going to take it at the local university, but ended up finding out that it would cost approx. $1100 to take pre-calc or w/e. If I come in with a math deficiency, can I take college algebra or pre-calc and get both the high school unit needed and college credit?</p>
<p>I can't believe that you would be the first student to ever come in with a deficiency.</p>
<p>Try calling the advising center for CBA, (since I think you said you were Econ), and asking them. You might be able to cover it by placing into Math 106 (calc I) or I guess Math 104 (Business Calc which is easier) when you take your math placement test at NSE. Don't quote me on that though. <a href="http://admissions.unl.edu/def/index.asp%5B/url%5D">http://admissions.unl.edu/def/index.asp</a> has some info, and from reading it looks like you might have to go the Community college route. It does say that CBA won't count any course taken to remove a deficiency towards degree requirements - so you'll have to take Math 104 regardless.</p>
