Do you enjoy the challenge of learning mathematics? Would you like a career in STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics)? You may want to follow the Calculus Pathway.
Are you interested in a career in business, social science, life science, education or health science? Consider the College Algebra Pathway.
If you're interested in a career that involves statistics, critical thinking and logic, then the Statistics Pathway might be most useful for you.
To determine which pathway is best for you, talk to an advisor to answer these two questions:

Join the pathway at the level of your mathematical preparedness. If you placed into Precalculus Foundations (MAT-044), your pathway looks like this:
If you placed into MAT 145, your pathway looks like this:
If you placed into MAT-151, your pathway looks like this:
Or you can place directly into:
Join the pathway at the level of your mathematical preparedness. If you placed into MAT-036, your pathway looks like this:
You can also place directly into:
If you are interested in a career in Early Childhood Education, Elementary Education, or Special Education, you might take Fundamental Concepts of Mathematics 1 (MAT-221) instead of College Algebra (MAT-137). Contact an AACC Academic Advisor about Mathematics courses for Education majors.
If you are interested in a career in Business Administration, you may also need Elementary Calculus (MAT-230) following MAT-137.
Join the pathway at the level of your mathematical preparedness. If you placed into Statistics and College-Level Foundations (MAT-034), your pathway looks like this:
If you placed into MAT-035, your pathway looks like this:
If you placed directly into MAT-100, MAT-133 or MAT-135, your pathway simply involves that one course.
