Minors help students diversify their educational experiences and allow them to complement their majors. Minors aid students in reaching their career objectives or applying to graduate school. Minors create opportunities for students to tailor and personalize their own educational experiences to their particular talents, interests, and goals. Minors are noted on a student’s transcript.
- A minor program must require a minimum of 15 credit hours.*
- A student must complete at least 9 credit hours of a minor program at Mercy University to receive credit on their academic transcript.
- Minors cannot be fulfilled solely through major requirements.
- A student cannot obtain a major and a minor in the same discipline.
- A student must have a 2.0 cumulative GPA within the minor in order to receive credit on their academic transcript.
