The recommended graduation plan is designed to provide a blueprint for students to complete their degrees on time. These plans are the recommended sequences of courses. Students must meet with their Academic Advisor to develop a more individualized plan to complete their degree.<\/p>\n
NOTE:<\/strong> This recommended Graduation Plan is applicable to students admitted into the major during the 2025-2026 academic year.<\/p>\n Items labeled [1] through [3] are explained in the footnotes on the bottom of this file.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n PDF<\/a> CRWT 101 to CRWT 102<\/p>\n CRWT 101S to CRWT 102S<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n MATH 021\/022 to MATH 024 to MATH 110 to MATH 121<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n NOTE<\/b>: CRWT and MATH courses are determined by placement testing and should be taken first.

Those three general education courses will need to be done first. First Year Seminar is taken in the first semester.

One of the ways to enter Calculus I is to place into it via the Calculus Placement Test called Accuplacer Advanced Algebra and Functions Test (AAF Test) at the RCNJ Testing Center. The Testing Center is open all year round. If the placement test results for a given student indicate that developmental courses are required (for instance, Precalculus, or Elementary Algebra Topics followed by Precalculus), such developmental courses may be taken as early as during the summer session(s) preceding the student\u2019s freshman year [Summer Session I (late May \u2013 late June) or Summer Session II (mid July \u2013 mid August)]. See the RCNJ Testing Center website for more details on the Calculus Placement Test.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Those mathematics majors who end up taking Precalculus, which is a 4-credit-hour course counting towards graduation credits, can count it as, for instance, the 4 HR Elective in the Fourth Year Spring in the table above.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n [2] If a student wishes to take a statistics course to fulfill one of their \u201cMATH Elective Level 300 or Above\u201d requirements, the student is advised to take exactly one of the following: Math 353 Statistics OR Math 370 Applied Statistics, but not both. If a student takes both of these two courses, then the one taken earlier will count as a \u201cMATH Elective Level 300 or Above\u201d requirement, but the one taken later will be counted as a general elective, and not as a \u201cMath elective Level 300 or above\u201d. Similarly, if a student first takes MATH 237 and later takes MATH 205, then MATH 205 will not count as a math elective, but as a general elective.<\/span><\/p>\n [3] If a 3-credit hour elective cannot be found in the schedule, it may be replaced by an elective (or a combination of electives) worth at least 3 credits hours total.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The following important math courses run once every two years:<\/span><\/p>\n Number Theory: will be offered in spring of even years:\u00a0 S26, S28, S30, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n Geometry: will be offered in spring of odd years: S27, S29, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n Statistics: will be offered in fall of even years: F24, F26, F28, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n Analysis:\u00a0 will be offered in fall of even years:\u00a0 F26, F28, F30, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n History of Math: will be offered in fall of odd years: F25, F27, F29, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n Abstract Algebra: will be offered in fall of odd years: F25, F27, F29, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n If you plan on taking any of these six important courses listed above that run once every two years (or if you are required to take any of them), then the following sequencing of these courses is recommended due to the fact that they run once every two years:<\/b><\/p>\n If you first became a student at 69色情视频 in the academic year whose fall semester is an even year (for example, if you started in Fall 2024 or Spring 2025), then plan for:<\/span><\/p>\n Spring of Sophomore Year:<\/span><\/p>\n –\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Number Theory<\/span><\/p>\n Spring of Junior Year:<\/span><\/p>\n –\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Geometry<\/span><\/p>\n Fall of Junior Year:<\/span><\/p>\n –\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Statistics<\/span><\/p>\n –\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Analysis<\/span><\/p>\n Fall of Senior Year:<\/span><\/p>\n –\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Abstract Algebra<\/span><\/p>\n –\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 History of Mathematics<\/span><\/p>\n If you first became a student at 69色情视频 in the academic year whose fall semester is an odd year (for example, if you started in Fall 2025 or Spring 2026), then plan for:<\/span><\/p>\n
