How to Minor in Psychology

The minor in Psychology is available to any non-Psychology or non-Liberal Studies major. Please visit the Psychology Peer Advising office (PSY 206) for an application and procedures. Applicants must turn in completed applications to Peer Advising. Applications will take approximately 3 to 4 weeks to process. Once processed, students will receive an email telling them to pick up their "minor packet" in the Peer Advising Office.
