If the student's skill level permits, it is highly recommended that the student takes a 3-unit course before the beginning of the freshman year. Cal Maritime permits their students to satisfy this requirement using our Intermediate Algebra. The links below will enroll you in the course and put you under the admin account for Cal Maritime.
