Important Program Notes:

The AS in Mathematics requires you to enter prepared to take Calculus (MAT 201) and Calculus-based Physics (PHY 211). Any needed prerequisites to be ready for these courses will not count for this degree. For many students, a general AS degree or a general AA degree is a better fit.  It allows you to apply college-level courses in College Algebra, Pre-calculus, and Physics. See an advisor to discuss testing out options, review transfer university requirements, and to develop an academic plan that works for you.

The Mathematics Faculty recommend you take your math courses in consecutive semesters (without taking a semester off, except possibly summer). The math in these courses build heavily on each other and taking courses in consecutive semesters increases skill retention.

Per the Statewide Transfer Articulation Agreement (STAA), you may complete ENG 121 (GT-CO1) and ENG 122 (GT-CO2) OR ENG 122 (GT-CO2) and a gtPathways-approved CO3 course (GT-CO3).

Per the Statewide Transfer Articulation Agreement (STAA), if COM 115 or COM 125, MAT 202, MAT 203 or MAT 204, or CSC 160 are not required for the major at a receiving 4-year institution, they will be applied to the Bachelor's degree as elective credit toward graduation. Please check with the receiving institution to determine in which way these courses will be applied.

Per the Statewide Transfer Articulation Agreement (STAA), PHY 211 and PHY 212 are the Natural & Physical Sciences (GT-SC1) required courses.

If you take MAT 204, it will reduce the 5 credits of electives neededYou must complete 60 credits to earn your Associate of Arts degree. You should not exceed 62 creditsYou may want to check with your advisor to monitor your completion progress and select your electives.
