Adding a minor
In many of Carleton’s programs, you can add degree elements that reflect your interests, build your passions and prepare you for future opportunities.
Many programs provide the flexibility to add a minor, a cohesive set of courses that offer a foundation in another area of study. A minor usually consists of 4.0 credits.
