Statement of Purpose and Educational Goals

Explain how adding this minor supports your creative and professional goals.*

Please explain why you wish to change your minor.*

I understand that minor course requirements can fulfill Studio Electives and in some cases also Creative Action and Liberal Arts and Sciences requirements (as defined by my individual academic plan). For some majors, pursuing a minor may require additional course work or degree requirements above the 120 credit BFA. If I am required to take summer school or additional semesters of attendance in order to complete my degree, I agree that any additional financial costs are my responsibility. I also understand that if my GPA drops below a 2.0 for two consecutive semesters or if I fall behind 6 credits or more, I will be required to drop my minor.*
