The calculation is based on the grades of all courses taken at Allegheny on a letter grade basis for the minor. Only the most recent grade is considered for courses that have been repeated. All courses for the minor must be taken on the letter grade basis. Under exceptional circumstances, one additional course taken Credit/No Credit may be presented for the minor with permission of the chair of the department. Typically, this exception is made when a student has taken a course CR/NC before declaring a minor in the department. A maximum of 4 transfer courses may be counted toward the minor requirements.
