ALEKS Placement Process

• Access your ALEKS account here. Log in with your L Number and passphrase.  
• Complete an initial placement assessment. You then have a choice to register for the course indicated by your initial result, or you can complete a customized Learning Module to improve your placement.

If you have questions about ALEKS, please contact us at mathoffice@lanecc.edu or 541-463-5446.

• Work independently in your customized ALEKS Learning Module. Use your Learning Module to fill in gaps in your math background, and then retake the ALEKS Placement Assessment. Note that you will need to spend a minimum of 3 hours working in your Learning Module before your second attempt unlocks. Researchers have found that most students will improve their placement by at least one course level by spending 6-8 hours working in their Learning Module.

• In order to register for a math class in the Algebra to Calculus pathway, you must achieve the ALEKS minimum score for the course you want to take.
