Before either changing or adding a major, a student must consult with the chair of the department which administers the new major. The student will supply that department chair with a current copy of his or her academic record. To enable the student to approach the change or addition in a realistic manner, the department chair will advise him or her of the course requirements and career opportunities in the field. Any change or addition of a major must be presented to the Registrar's Office. A 2.0 GPA must be maintained in the major.
Minor programs are available in most departments.
Special minor programs are offered in anthropology, communications, creative writing, drama, criminology and criminal justice, education, federal income taxation, fine arts, international studies, Japanese, Latin, management information systems, Spanish, urban studies and women's studies. The College requires that half the courses used for a minor be taken at Le Moyne. Specific requirements for a minor are determined by each department. The minor course of study is optional for each student, and approval by the major and minor department chairs is required. Each department has the option of requiring an interview with its chair before admitting any student to its minor program.
