REQUIREMENTS FOR THE SECOND
MAJOR
Students who wish to earn a second major may do
so by successfully completing all courses required for
the second major as specified in this catalog, provided
both the primary and secondary majors lead to the
same baccalaureate degree (e.g., B.A., B.B.A., B.S.).
Supporting courses will not be required. Work for the
second major must be of the same quality as that required
for the first. As required by the Board of Regents, a
student's diploma will reflect only the degree designation
(e.g., Bachelor of Science.) The degree designation, as
well as both majors, will appear on the student's transcript.
REQUIREMENTS FOR A MINOR
Requirements for a minor for those students pursuing
bachelor degrees may be found under “Re quire ments
for a Minor” in the Courses of Instruction section in this
catalog. Students pursuing associate degrees cannot earn
a minor. Minor subject areas are not posted on a transcript
subsequent to the completion of a bachelor’s degree.

A fee schedule is posted in Student Health Services for

the same consequences as other University debt flags.
