When preparation is found to be inadequate, the student is encouraged to enroll in courses providing the education, training, and experience necessary to help assure success at the university level, even though such work may require the student to take one or more additional terms to complete a prescribed four year curriculum. The minor must consist of a minimum of 27 designated credits of related course work, including 12 in upper division courses. Courses required for the student's major may not count toward a minor.
