Notes:

A student must complete all courses with a least a minimum 2.0 Minor GPA for all hours attempted. In addition, a minimum grade of “C” (2.0) must be earned in each course completed for the Arabic minor.
Some courses in the minor requirements listed above have prerequisites, so students should consult the University Catalog or check with their advisor to ensure the proper fulfillment of course requirements.
Courses used to fulfill minor requirements may not be taken as Pass/Fail.
Before the student departs on a study abroad program, a form titled “Authorization to Take Courses Elsewhere” must be filled out and signed by the student, the student’s Arabic advisor, and the Director of the Office of Global Education.
