These credits must be from courses numbered above 3100, with the exceptions that MATH 2730 and/or MATH 3020 may be part of the 12 credits. The 12 credits completed at UW-Platteville may include repeats of courses taken at another campus.

NOTE: The following policies will apply when calculating the G.P.A. for (i) admission to student teaching AND (ii) application for teacher licensure:

  1. The G.P.A. will be calculated from the 40 credits of mathematics courses counted toward the major. The required computer science course and natural science course are not counted in the G.P.A. calculation.

  2. Transfer courses at the time of matriculation to UW-Platteville will be counted in the 2.75 G.P.A. calculation for mathematics majors in secondary education.

  3. Transfer courses that are not repeats of courses taken at UW-Platteville will be counted in the 2.75 G.P.A. calculation for mathematics majors in mathematics education.

  4. Transfer courses that are repeats of courses taken at UW-Platteville will not be counted in the 2.75 G.P.A. calculation for mathematics majors in Mathematics education.
