A minimum of 12 credits counting toward the minor must be taken at the 300 or 400 level. At least nine credits of the minor must be take at JHU on the Homewood campus and that must include at least one course with either a POS Tag of MLL-PITAL or MLL-MITAL. All minor requirements must be completed with a grade of C- or better and may not be taken satisfactory/unsatisfactory.
