AMST-MIN - American Studies

Students who plan to major in American Studies must have a minimum grade of B in AMST 110. Interested students should meet with the director to plan their course of study as early as possible in their college careers. They should file their concentration form with the director by their lower junior semester. AMST 110 should be taken by majors as soon as possible and normally precedes courses taken in each of the three Perspectives on American Experience. Students must maintain a cumulative 2.0 grade-point average in courses applicable to the major. Honors in American Studies will be granted to majors who maintain a cumulative 3.5 grade-point average in American Studies and write an honors essay approved by the Advisory Committee.
