Although students may declare a major as early as the freshman year, this is generally done during the sophomore year. The maximum number of units required for a departmental major is 10 units in that department and an additional four units in other departments. No more than 16 units in any one department may be counted toward graduation.
Students also have the option to declare a minor.
To be a candidate for an Albion College degree, a student must complete the last 12 units in residence. Students who have earned six units at Albion prior to the beginning of their senior year may elect out of residence two units of the last 12 units required for graduation. All other students must complete their last 12 units of work in residence. If a student who has already earned a baccalaureate degree from a college or university applies to earn a second degree from Albion College, the student will be required to meet the resident requirements for all transfer students. Included in this total are the core requirement and at least 16 but not more than 21 units in visual arts.
