20 creditsA minor typically consists of 20 credits with C- or better and a 2.0 grade-point average in courses that the minor department approves. Courses taken on a pass/fail basis may not be used for a minor. No more than 8 credits used to satisfy major requirements may be used for the minor.
A grade of C- or better is still required for prerequisite course. You may pass a course with a D- or better, but you will be required to retake the course and earn a C- or better to satisfy prerequisite(s). ○ Example: You earned a D in MA 171 and choose to switch to PASS.
The minimum passing grade for credit is a D- (0.67); any grade below this minimum is a fail. All grades will be recorded on the grade roster as A, B, C, D, F, or intermediate grades. The pass/fail marks will be placed on students' transcripts and grade reports by the Registrar's Office.
10 coursesIf you have completed 30 units (10 courses) in first year and 36 units (12 courses) in your second year, you have completed 66 units. You therefore enrol in third year.
