MPE/MDA Expiration Dates

MDA Results

MDA results are valid for one academic year (Summer, Fall, Winter, and Spring). 

  • MDA results from spring 2025 expired in April 2026 and are no longer valid for booking. Students who have not passed the course from their MDA placement must take the MPE to earn a new valid math placement (See MPE Session Dates).  
  • MDA results from spring 2026 will expire in April 2027 and can be used to book SU26, FA26, WI27, and SP27.

MPE Results

MPE results are valid for one full academic year plus one term to ensure students do not lose their enrollment if their results were valid during their booking windows.  View the tables below to determine when your MPE results expire.
