• The Peak Performance program is a flexible online summer program, designed to help incoming freshmen and transfer students who are looking to refresh their math skills before the fall semester.
• We offer this as a free service to help our students. Peak Performance is not a requirement.
• Students will be matched with a peer Math Coach who provides academic support during the summer.
• Students who participate in Peak Performance AND improve their placement are eligible for reserved seats in the math class in which they place.

Students can begin as early as June 5, 2023 but no later than June 12, 2023.  The program ends on July 14, 2023.

Students gain the most when they commit to working about 5 hours per week. In addition to that time, students will meet weekly via Zoom with their peer Math Coach who can help answer questions and keep them on track.

We use MyMathTest, which is a powerful online tool. MyMathTest continuously assesses student performance and activity and, using data and analytics, personalizes content to reinforce concepts that target each student’s strengths and weaknesses. MyMathTest uses adaptive learning which makes studying more efficient and individualized for each student. This ensures that students don’t spend time covering material they have already mastered and allows for students to stay on track to continue to progress and meet their goals.

At the end of the six weeks, or when the student feels prepared to do so, those seeking to improve placement can take the NAU Math Placement Test in an attempt to challenge and increase their previous placement. Additionally, students enrolled in the program will continue to have access to review for the duration of the summer, even after taking the test!

ALL NAU math placement tests must be proctored. Please go to ready to test, to learn about our online proctoring option.

The Peak Performance program is 100% online. Students can work from home, anywhere in the United States. The only requirements are the weekly time commitment and regular access to reliable internet.

• Must be admitted to NAU as an incoming freshman student AND
• Students have their math placement already determined
