* Mathematics majors are required to take the PHYS 211/212 sequence rather than PHYS 201/202.
However, if a student in the mathematics major receives AP credit for both PHYS 201 and 202, the
211/212 requirements are waived.
** AP Statistics is not a calculus-based course or exam. Mathematics majors who receive AP credit for
Statistics are still required to take STAT 291 for the major requirement.
