Please get in touch with me if you have any questions concerning UConn's undergraduate program, especially the Mathematics Program. Some topics most frequently asked about are:

  • Which courses are being or will be offered and by whom
  • Transfer credit evaluation
    • for students transferring to UConn from another institution
    • for students who want to take courses elsewhere in the near future
  • Advising on the appropriate math course to take
  • Catalog restrictions and prerequisites
  • Registration:
    • If the course your interested in is full and you want to overenroll
      • In some cases, you need to contact the instructor, in others, me.
    • At what times will you have access to the system for registration
  • Thinking about being a Math major
  • Thinking about a dual or double major
  • Thinking about a Math minor
  • Concerns or problems with your course or with your instructor
  • The Calculus Readiness Survey
  • The Calculus sequences:
    • Math 120Q,121Q,220Q
    • Math 115Q,116Q,210Q
    • Math 112Q,113Q,116Q,210Q
    • Math 112Q,113Q, 114Q (terminal sequence which does not lead to 200-level courses)
  • Technology (Calculator and/or Computer use) in our classes
  • Completing an incomplete or absent grade from last semester
