3. At least 6 hours of credit toward the minor must be taken at UL Lafayette.

6. All minors are governed by the college that houses the discipline of the minor, and in the case of cross-college interdisciplinary minors, the primary college of the minor.

9. Completion of a minor will be noted on the student’s transcript.
