Minor Requirements

Japanese Studies will allow our majors and minors to take their SP20, SU20, FA20, WI21, SP21, and WI22 courses for P/NP per the campus recommendation.

• P/NP courses will be counted towards the 25% maximum 
• Students must earn at least a C- grade to earn a P; a change from a D grade to NP will result in loss of units 
• Financial aid packages will be affected by NP grades

• At least 16 units of non-language courses from two or more departments
