TESU ASNSM in Mathematics Add-On for BA in Computer Science

[LevelUP]

How do you actually get this add-on degree? Do I have to explicitly ask them to add this degree plan to my profile? Is that better to do in the beginning or better to wait?

Ask advising to add AS Math. I would add it early since you lock in the degree plan in case things change in the future.

Here is what you need for AS in Math (22cr)

3 credits Math GE
4 credits Calculus
15 credits of Math Electives
22 credits total

Do first (as part of CS degree)
3cr Sophia College Algebra (MAT-121 College Algebra)
4cr Sophia Calculus I (MAT-231 Calculus I)
3cr Sophia Introduction to Statistics (STA-201 Principles of Statistics)
3cr Study.com Math 108: Discrete Mathematics (MAT-270 Discrete Mathematics)
3cr CSM Learn (BUS-210 Quantitative Skill for Business)
16 credits

Then do either
6cr CLEP College math 
or
3cr Sophia Introduction to College Mathematics (MAT-105 Applied Liberal Arts Mathematics)
3cr Sophia Precalculus (MAT-129 Precalculus) 

22 credits total

Natural Science, Computer Science, or Math Electives (9cr)
Don't worry about this because this part will be automatically filled with all the CS courses you took.

I always recommend that students who are pursuing a CS degree should consider obtaining a free AS in Math as well. Often, you only need to complete a few additional courses, which can easily fit into the elective requirements of your CS degree. This approach doesn't require extra time investment, as you would need to take other courses to fulfill those elective slots anyway.
