CWU Summer Math Bridge

The 2021 CWU Summer Online Math Bridge Program is available for registration. Students who wish to improve their placement and save time and money to degree can choose one of two 6-week sessions. Improving your placement can save you up to two quarters of pre-requisite math courses and help you stay on track for degree completion within four years.

Any current student or incoming student who is fully admitted to CWU and plans to register for fall courses may take the Online Bridge for FREE. The Bridge provides students with 1:1 help with a CWU math consultant, who will work alongside the student through learning modules within ALEKS, an intelligent software system aimed at helping students gain mastery over essential math skills.

In order to participate, students must have internet access and be willing to commit at least six hours per week to improvement of skills. Our data shows a strong correlation between time spent in the Bridge and improved placement scores. Math Consultants will meet with students via Zoom at regularly scheduled times each week (many flexible options available), and then students spend the rest of their time within ALEKS. This allows for a great deal of flexibility to help students manage work hours or other family obligations while still helping them gain skills that lead to improvement.

The Online Math Bridge has been highly successful for many students and only requires a positive mindset, commitment to meeting your goals and the willingness to learn!
