Prerequisites
To register for English 101, Math 052 or Math 120, you will need to take Oakton's assessment tests.
Call the Testing Center in Des Plaines at 847-635-1939 or in Skokie at 847-635-1446 to make arrangements to take the appropriate test.
To register for Math 260, you will need to have completed Calculus I. If you have not completed Calculus I (MAT 250) at Oakton, you will need to either take the assessment test or send to the Math Department a record of your having completed Calculus I elsewhere before you register.
If you have questions about the assessment requirement, you can contact an advisor through Student Services or by e-mail.
