Receive your student aid award notification.
Beginning mid-February, Penn State sends out notifications to all accepted students regarding the student aid they are receiving.

Take the online ALEKS placement test.
Beginning in March, students who have paid their acceptance fees will receive an email with information about how to go online and take the ALEKS math placement test.

If you do not take the ALEKS test prior to NSO, you will not be able to schedule math and science classes at the NSO advisory appointment.
Transfer students may or may not be required to take the ALEKS assessment. If you're not sure if you need to test, contact the 学术 and Career Success Center.
Your NSO Tasklist will provide you with a personalized message stating whether ALEKS is required for you.
