Grades of Pass are not counted toward major or minor requirements. Although grades lower than C may not count toward major requirements, they are nevertheless included in computation of the major grade average. Students are therefore encouraged to do well in all their major courses. Students must meet the requirements for a major or minor as published in the Bulletin unless a requirement is specifically modified by the department. Any such modification must be recorded in writing and sent by the department chair to the registrar.
Academic disciplines develop and change over time.
For this reason, departments reserve the right to not accept toward the major or minor courses taken more than a specified number of years in the past. Academic departments have established time limits on the acceptability of courses into programs. Two Majors Students who wish to earn the baccalaureate degree with two majors may do so with clearance of the majors by the respective departments or schools. Both majors must be completed before the degree is awarded. Students electing to complete more than one major should expect to extend their undergraduate careers beyond the standard four years.
