All students completing a minor must earn a cumulative grade point average of 2.0 in these designated courses and take a minimum of nine credits of coursework at York College of Pennsylvania to have their minor appear on their transcript. In the case of advanced courses, students have the responsibility to meet any prerequisites listed in the catalog.
