Hi everyone. I am applying to BU. I just found out that they require two semesters of calculus. I took courses from a community college, but it says that BU will not accept community college credits for their pre-reqs. The university that I attend now as an undergrad accepted the credits as transfers, however. Will I have to retake the courses😕, or do you think that they will still consider me as an applicant with the com college credits? I am a junior now, applying in the summer, so there really isn't any time for me to take the math again at my school. Please tell me what you think -- good or bad!!!

Thank you!!!

You will most likely need to retake, go ahead an apply and just take them over the summer/ during your senior year. The good news is that if you had to you prob could take them at the same time. Good luck

if your college accepted these transfer credits, you still need to retake them? I took AP Cal in my high school and my college accepted them too. So does it mean that I have to take the courses all over again???
Are you sure you have to retake them? why don't you call the d school and ask first.
