A minimum grade of “C” must be earned in each course completed for the Chinese Studies minor and an average GPA of 2.0 in all courses taken for the Chinese Studies minor is required for completion.

A form titled “Authorization to Take Courses Elsewhere” must be filled out and signed by the student, the Chair of the Department, and the Director of the Office of Global Education before the student departs on a study abroad program.
