Minor and Certificate Programs
A student in the School of Arts and Sciences may choose to earn one or more optional minors or certificates in fields outside the major. (Majors in a foreign language may, however, minor in another foreign language.) Most minors consist of six courses, as specified by the appropriate department. For requirements of specific certificates, see departmental and program listings in the link below. Substitutions are generally not permitted, and no course may be taken on a pass/fail basis. A maximum of two courses in a minor may be transferred from other institutions, provided that these courses are evaluated as equivalent to the courses specified. A maximum of two courses may be double counted between any major(s), minor(s), and certificate(s). A list of minors is available here: https://www.catholic.edu/academics/undergraduate/minors/index.html
Students should apply for minors and certificates using the form found on the school website. For more information on a particular minor or certificate, please visit the website of the department or school offering that program.
