Description
The Latin minor allows students to gain expertise in Latin and ancient culture beyond the Intermediate II level. Students obtain proficiency in Latin and take courses in Roman culture, history and archaeology.
Admission Requirements
Admission to a minor is open to students declared in a bachelor’s degree, the A.A.B. or A.A.S. degree or the A.T.S. degree (not Individualized Program major). Students declared only in the A.A. or A.S. degree or the A.T.S. degree in Individualized Program may not declare a minor. Students may not pursue a minor and a major in the same discipline.
