Advising Services
The Math Center has several different types of advisors to meet your specific needs:
Undergraduate Program Coordinator
Laurie Varecka, the Undergraduate Program Coordinator, is available for your general advising needs. She provides assistance with issues like: declaring the math major or minor, policy questions, course selection for students in the first few semesters of the major, questions about advisement reports, etc. If you have a question and are not sure who to ask, she is a good place to start. To ask a question, request an appointment, or view availability for walk-in advising, please use the Contact Us form.
General Education Advising
Tharini "Raini" Wijeweera provides help with general education and/or transfer questions only for Math Majors in the Gould–Simpson Building room 1017.
Faculty Advisors
To help you create a course of study best suited to your talents, interests, and goals, faculty members from the Mathematics Department have volunteered to act as advisors for math majors. As students progress in the math major, they are assigned faculty advisors. Your advisor will then—and each term thereafter—discuss your educational plans with you and help you set up a mathematics program. Your faculty advisor is also a source of information about careers and/or graduate school. Each semester, students are sent a message before priority registration begins to make sure they know who their faculty advisors are and how to reach them. Please watch for this message from mcenter@math.arizona.edu.
College Advisors
The College of Science Advising Office is available for math majors who need to start their degree checks, are looking for permission to enroll in extra units for a semester, who need the Dean's permission to withdraw from a course after the deadline, or if an urgent matter arises and the Undergraduate Program Coordinator is not available. The College of Science Advising Office is located in the Gould–Simpson Building room 1017. If math is not your primary major, please consult with your primary college's advising office for assistance with these issues.
