Advisors
All faculty members can serve as advisors. If you would like to be a Math Major, ask your favorite professor to be your advisor. Faculty members usually welcome contact with undergraduates who have an interest in their subject.
Members of the advising committee can approve transfer credit and off-campus courses, and provide general information. They also assign advisors for math majors and minors.

In order to obtain prior approval for transferring credit from a course that you plan to take at another university or college, bring a copy of the catalog description of the course with you when you come to see the advisor. If it is possible to obtain a syllabus for the course that is even better. The advisor will need this description in order to compare the course with the courses offered at this university -- it is not enough (or necessary) that the course has the same name.
