Frequent Advising Issues and Solutions

Q:  I have a hold on my account.  Can you clear it?

A:  No, I cannot clear holds of any kind.  If it is an academic hold, you will need to speak with a CLAS advisor.  You should visit https://www.advising.ufl.edu/ and follow the directions for Current University of Florida Students. 

Q:  I have questions about gen eds, foreign language, excess hours, AP/IB credit, etc.  Where do I go?

A:  These questions need to go through CLAS advising.  Visit https://www.advising.ufl.edu/ and follow the directions for Current University of Florida Students.

Q:  I have a petition/add major/change of major/study abroad/other form to be signed.  What do I do?

A: Please send an email from your @ufl.edu email to undergraduatecoordinator@math.ufl.edu. Attach the completed form, personal statement and graduation plan (for a petition or major change). Please also describe any information important for me to know about the petition/form in your email.  Please remember to include your UF ID and phone number in case I need clarifications. I will sign electronically and return the form to you via email.

Q:  I don’t know what courses to take in future terms.  Can you help me figure it out? 

A: To get started, please consult the math advising pages for course recommendations/requirements, etc. Review your degree audit in ONE.UF and review the Mathematics BA model semester plan or Mathematics BS model semester plan. You can click on the links for any courses in that list to see descriptions and prerequisites. Then go to the online schedule of courses (see https://one.ufl.edu/soc/) and start making your schedule.  If you’ve checked all of these pages, and still have questions, send me an email.

Q:  I cannot find the list of approved electives for the mathematics BA/BS.

A: Open the Mathematics BA approved electives or Mathematics BS approved electives.

Q: I would like to add a math minor and I have questions about the process/requirements/selection of courses, etc.

 A: You can find information about the math minor here: https://catalog.ufl.edu/UGRD/colleges-schools/UGLAS/MAT_UMN/ . To add/cancel a math minor, complete the application in ONE.UF 

Q: Can I leave a voicemail on the phone?

A: Please use email as it is will be faster and easier for me to respond.
