Department Requirements

College of Business students with major requirements which include one or more of the courses listed as required for their minor will be allowed to count a maximum of 6 SCH to fulfill both their major and minor area requirements. Any additional courses that are common between the major area of study and the minor area would have to be substituted by upper-level courses in the minor area. The substituted courses must be approved by the Dean of the College of Business. Consult the Department Head offering the minor for details.

All non-Business students are required to maintain a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 in the minor areas for graduation; the student can have only one “D” in the courses required for the minor areas.

Business majors must earn a grade of “C or better” in every business course (except if taken as an unrestricted elective).
