Mathematics Online/Hybrid Sample Plan of Study

Important Note: The offering of the summer courses that are listed in the schedule are suject to approval. Check with the Math Department ((309) 438-8781  math@IllinoisState.edu) each January if a particular course that you are interested in will run or not.
