What do I do if the class I need is full?
Before the semester begins, registration runs weekly purges on all courses where students have not paid or made payment arrangements. This will open up seats in courses. During the first week of classes, daily purges are run and students often change their schedules creating open seats. You can always contact the instructor of the class you need by phone or email requesting to be added to the course. It is the instructor's decision as to whether you will be allowed to add the course.

How do I change classes?
Sometimes it is just a matter of finding the course you want and completing the Drop/Add registration process. Please refer to the Department Drop/Add Policy.

How do I contact an instructor?

My instructor is not listed on the Residential Faculty page. How do I contact them?
Your instructor may have Adjunct status. That means they do not have an office on campus. Check your syllabus, you will probably find your instructor's contact information there. You may also call the Math Office and leave a message with the Office staff for your instructor.

How do I find out if an instructor uses online homework or not?

The Hybrid & Online Courses page contains a list of all instructors and basic information of how they teach their classes (traditional, web-based homework, computer assisted, hybrid, or online).

How do I find out what course to register for?

If you are new to the Maricopa Community College District (MCCD), all new students are required to take a Math Placement test. The Placement test will determine in which course you should enroll.
If you have completed Math courses at GCC or in the MCCD District, you should refer to the Course Sequence page to determine in which course you should enroll depending on your major.

What is Online Tutoring?

Online Tutoring allows students to get help with their math homework without having to come to campus. You will be assisted by a Math Dept. faculty member using a web conferencing tool called Elluminate. For more information, refer to the Online Tutoring page.
