Writing Seminars Minor Requirements

Students who wish to graduate with a minor in Writing Seminars must take AS.220.105 Introduction to Fiction & Poetry I or AS.220.108 Introduction to Fiction & Nonfiction, and AS.220.106 Introduction to Fiction & Poetry II, Students also need to take AS.220.200 The Craft of Fiction and AS.220.201 The Craft of Poetry, as well as three additional Writing Seminars courses at the 200-400 level. One course outside of the Writing Seminars Department may count towards the minor with approval from the DUS; approval is given for courses with a strong creative writing component (e.g. AS.061.205 Introduction to Screenwriting). Students must earn a grade of C- or better in all courses required for the minor and no minor requirements may be taken satisfactory/unsatisfactory.  If a student opts to take First-Year Seminar (AS.001.1xx) cross-listed  with the Writing Seminars and earns an S grade, the course may apply towards minor requirements even though it is graded satisfactory/unsatisfactory and at the 100 level.
