Math Pathways Visual Chart

  • THE MATH DEPARTMENT DOES NOT ADVISE STUDENTS on progression information.
  • The Math Department (through the CNAS Enrollment Management Center) can only place you in an appropriate class based on what you have already taken or tested into. 
  • Only your advisor can tell you which progression path you should be taking. Please see your advisor for information on which path you should choose.
  • For Math majors: Your advisor will direct you on which path to start out on, but in the end, all of the above Math classes must be taken for a BA and BS degree.

Non Math Majors

  • Path #1 - Math 4  Math 22
  • Path #2 - Math 5  Math 9A  Math 9B  Math 9C
  • Path #3 - Math 5 → Math 9A  Math 9B  Math 46
  • Path #4 - Math 5  Math 9A  Math 9B  Math 10A  Math 10B
  • Path #5 - Math 6A  Math 6B  Math 9A → Math 9B  Math 9C
  • Path #6 - Math 6A  Math 6B  Math 9A → Math 9B  Math 46
  • Path #7 - Math 6A  Math 6B  Math 9A → Math 9B  Math 10A  Math 10B
Notice: Once a student has tested into Math 4, 5, or 6A, the above progressions are possible. If a student has tested directly into 9A, they would start further into one of the progression paths above.
