Overview

The Math Center offers students several ways to complete their remedial math requirements (Math 35 - Pre algebra, Math 95 Elementary Algebra and Geometry, & Math 96 - Intermediate Algebra and Geometry). Three Math Center Programs provide students with scheduling flexibility, individualized pacing, a variety of learning modalities, and the ability to overcome prerequisite or course repetition blocks. The three programs are on-campus Math Center courses, Online Self-Paced courses and one-unit, credit/no-credit Refresher courses. These programs set themselves apart from conventional lecture and online courses in the flexibility they offer.

Mission
Our mission is to provide a flexible learner-centered environment in which students are able to complete their college math requirements.

History
The City College Math Center first opened its doors in 1994 and has helped thousands of students achieve their math goals with on-campus, self-paced courses. With its open-entry courses, the Math Center has been a safety net to students who have mid-semester schedule changes or those who determine that they will not succeed in a traditional course and need to find a fast alternative.
