- MPA majors must clear advising bars before registration!
- Step 1: Complete the on-line advising worksheet or make an appointment with your advisor via simplicity (new!)
- Step 2:
- Astronomy majors must make an appointment with an AST Faculty Advisor.
- Physics should make an appointment with the PHY Faculty Advisor if they have not yet met Dr. Sitz, have any questions, or just want to make contact with him for any reason.
- Math majors can make an appointment with a Math Faculty advisor by sending an email. Some reasons why a student may want to see a Math Faculty Advisor include assistance with course sequencing, credit evaluation, questions about substitutions, graduate school preparation, and certificate issues.
Q-DROPS, PASS/FAIL CHANGES, & WITHDRAWS FOR FAll 2020:
- Deadline to request pass/fail, Q-drop or withdraw changes:
- October 29, 2020
- Pass/fail courses will no longer fulfill degree requirements, unless they are for elective hours only. Please discuss this with your Academic Advisor, if you have any questions. Drops are considered academic and will count against your 6-drop limit unless they have been approved for a non-academic drop by a Non-academic Counselor in CNS Student Services.
- If you are experiencing non-academic difficulties and need assistance or wish to appeal for a non-academic drop or withdrawal, please e-mail Brandon.crabtree@austin.utexas.edu to schedule a phone appointment with a counselor.
- If you would like to discuss the drop or pass/fail you are considering before deciding whether or not to proceed, schedule an appointment with your advisor.
- Students wishing to drop all of their courses (withdraw) may enter their request below.
- If you are sure you would like to proceed, please enter your request at: https://utdirect.utexas.edu/apps/cola/rtk/student_reg_change
PHYSICS coaching sessions FOR FALL 2020:
- The Department of Physics is offering vitual coaching (in lieu of in-person coaching tables) throughout the semster. If you need any assistance in your courses, please do not hesitate to attend a session! Please see the attached virtual coaching calendar and zoom links.
ACF 329F is now M 329F!
- Same course, different name.
M 427J:
- M 427J is a new differential equations which replaced M 427K beginning in Fall 2015. It is called Differential Equations with Linear Algebra and differs from M 427K in that several weeks of the course are devoted to linear algebra and the course covers systems of linear differential equations thoroughly. The prerequisite for this course is the same as that for M 427K - at least a C- in M 408D, 408L, or 408S. It should replace M 427K in any degree plan and serve as a prerequisite for any course that now requires M 427K.
