MAJOR PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS.
(See also DEGREES; DEGREE REQUIREMENTS; MAJOR-CONSTRAINTS UPON; MAJOR DECLARATION; MAJOR, SPECIAL PROGRAM; MAJORS, DOUBLE.)
Each student is required to complete a major program. He or she may select a major (or majors) from the University’s offerings or may elect to plan a special major. The requirements for each major are printed in the University Catalog and may be revised when a new edition is printed.
For graduation, the minimum grade-point average required in the major program on UMW courses is 2.00 (C average). A minimum of one-half (1/2) of the credits required for the major program must be earned at UMW. A maximum of 60 credits in a single discipline can be counted toward the credits required for graduation.
If a student is completing two majors (double major), the two majors may have a maximum of 9 credits in common. Overlapping in excess of 9 credits will be deemed to constitute one special major program that must be approved by the Curriculum Committee (see MAJOR, SPECIAL PROGRAM.).
