UNIVERSITY MINORS
________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________
Access to interdisciplinary study is available to students through minors at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. These curricular opportunities allow students to immerse themselves in an additional discipline inside or outside of their college. Note: Course availability in all minors may vary from semester to semester. Some courses may be in development and offered at a later time. Students seeking to pursue alternative coursework to fulfill the minor should consult with their advisors.
UNDERGRADUATE MINORS
Undergraduate students can declare up to two minors once they have declared their major. Students cannot minor in their own major, or minor in areas that are too similar to their majors. Undergraduate minors are not open to graduate students. All undergraduate minors require completion of a minimum of 18 credits to fulfill the minor.
A list of all of the University’s undergraduate minors appears below. Students in certain majors are precluded from certain minors.

GRADUATE MINORS
Graduate minors are available to all graduate students at The New School, although some minors are closed to students in specific programs. Some programs allow you to use graduate minor credits to meet elective credit requirements. If your program does not include 9 open elective credits, you can pursue a graduate minor by earning elective credits beyond the number permitted by the program. Academic advisors can help you select and declare a graduate minor and chart a curriculum that satisfies your degree and minor requirements.
