Registration

All students should be automatically enrolled in a MAP course in Blackboard, our learning system, and can take the MAP proctored either at home or in-person in the USC Columbia Math Lab.  

You do not need to come to Columbia to take the MAP. However, it is an option if you do not have a computer or would prefer to be proctored in person rather than being proctored virtually. 

Currently enrolled students who need to Retake the MAP need to take the test in person in our Math Lab. You are a currently enrolled student if you have started taking classes at USC Columbia and were admitted before Spring 2025. Current students in online only majors with concentration in Distributed Learning may request to take the MAP online.

If you have any issues with the MAP, please contact the team at assess@math.sc.edu
