Advising
During their first semester, VCU students majoring in Mathematics will be assigned a faculty advisor from the Department of Mathematics. Students in the K-8 Mathematics Specialist program will be assigned department faculty members working in collaboration with the School of Education.
Majors are assigned approximately two weeks after the end of add/drop each semester. If you have not yet been assigned an advisor, are thinking about or planning on becoming a Math major, or have questions about the minor, please e-mail Hollyn Mangione at mangioneht@vcu.edu.
Once you get assigned to a faculty advisor, you will be recieving an e-mail from the department every semester, prior to registration, asking you to make an appointment with your advisor.

Course Overrides
The Department of Mathematics and Applied Mathematics is committed to finding seats for students in classes that they meet prerequisites for, but because of limited seat availability in many lower level courses it cannot promise a seat. All overrides to classes closed because of maximum enrollment is reached are given on a first-come-first-served basis when seats become available. All those who want an override into a mathematics course can either complete this override form and e-mail it to mathlab, or print it complete it and then drop it at the Mathematics Lab (Oliver Hall 3013). The same form can also be picked at the mathematics lab.
