Students pursuing majors and/or other minors that require mathematics courses may follow this minor, as long as two of the four courses do not apply simultaneously to the requirements for their major and/or minor.
Courses taken under the Pass/Fail option are not counted toward the minor. A grade of C or higher is required in all courses counting for the minor. Advisers are available for consultation on minor requirements before and during registration; students should consult an adviser if they have any doubt about which courses fulfill their requirements.
Although courses transferred from other colleges may count towards the minor with departmental approval, at least two courses for the minor must be taken at New York University.
