Minors
Students in the College of Consumer and Family Sciences may pursue a wide variety of minors. The length of time it takes to complete these minors is dependent upon the student's major and the particular minor. Some majors accommodate minors within the regular four-year plan of study. Other combinations require the student to extend their studies beyond four years.
CFS students interested in pursuing a minor are encouraged to make an appointment to see their academic advisor to discuss the requirements for the minor and how the courses fit within their plan of study.
