How do I minor?

<p>Hey, I'm an incoming freshmen to rose hill this fall and my current major is political science... does anyone know how i can list history as my minor? or who to contact? i don't even know who to ask haha</p>

<p>You don’t need to worry about having an official minor until after you make serious headway into your major coursework. You are generally expected to first begin to tackle a major and then later declare a minor/second major.</p>

<p>For now, declaring a minor will not effect you at all because any time not taken up by the core, if any, would be devoted to your major.</p>

<p>I agree, there is no rush to declare a minor. With all the core classes, having a minor should not impact your first semester freshman schedule at all. In fact, you do not need to declare a major until the end of your sophmore year. I’d wait until you get on campus. Then you can schedule a meeting with your freshman advisor and figure out the best course of action. Good luck at Fordham.</p>

<p>Really, the only reason majors/ minors could even effect you in the next year is in multi-tasking classes. Certain core classes can fill major requirements, so if you list the courses required by your major/ minor, you might be able to get cross over with the core. Officially it really doesn’t matter for a while, and I don’t think there is anywhere to even list minors at this point. Have fun in the fall, and don’t get too stressed over majors and minors and life after college yet!</p>
