Decide what subject you want to get your minor degree in. Consider whether you want your minor degree to compliment your major or if you wish to explore an unrelated field of study. Think about educational and career goals to help you make an informed decision.
Read your school's undergraduate catalog, which outlines the degree requirements for your course of study. This will show you how many credit hours are required for your minor and which courses you need to take.
Meet with an academic adviser to declare your minor and discuss your academic goals. Academic advisers assist students with their academic goals by helping with course selection, class scheduling, and meeting academic requirements. Students should meet with an adviser each term to stay on track with degree requirements.
Take the required classes to meet the requirements for your minor. These classes can be spread over the course of your 4-year academic career. Most colleges and universities require a grade of C or better to get credit for the course.
Fulfill other academic requirements. This includes courses for your major, general education requirements and electives. Electives are additional courses that help students fulfill credit hour requirements. These courses may be used to fulfill requirements for a minor.
