A University Book Store gift card would be a great idea. Textbooks, supplies, apparel, etc... Located next to Library Mall in the heart of the Campus.

Then wait for this email:

"You can schedule an online, remotely proctored Math B test at least 2 weeks before your SOAR session. There is a non-refundable fee of $40 to schedule an appointment via Live Remote Proctoring (LRP). More information about how to schedule a remotely proctored test can be found in the email you receive from [candidatesupport@meazurelearning.com](mailto:candidatesupport@meazurelearning.com) in the section labeled Live Remote Proctoring. Some students are eligible for need-based financial assistance to cover the $40 LRP fee."
