The English Minor

The minor requires a minimum of 15 s.h. of course work in English, including at least 6 s.h. in literature (prefix 008); the remaining 9 s.h. may be selected from additional courses in literature, from most courses in writing (prefixes 08C and 08N), or from courses in linguistics (prefix 08L). Students must maintain a g.p.a. of at least 2.00 in the minor. A maximum of 3 s.h. of transfer credit or credit by examination may be applied toward the minor. No course for the minor may be taken pass/nonpass.

Before taking courses for the minor, students must complete the requirement for 08G:001 The Interpretation of Literature.

The following courses do not count toward the minor: all 08A and 08G courses, 08C:001, and 08N:020.

The minor is officially acknowledged and recorded only after the student has completed the application for graduation.

Students who would like assistance in planning to meet requirements for the minor may stop by the advising office or schedule an appointment with an advisor by contacting the undergraduate English secretary.
