2 CHECKLIST FOR CRIMINOLOGY MAJORS Complete the Core Curriculum Areas A-E with a minimum 2.5 GPA. Copies of the requirements are attached and they are also available on the web, at the Excel Center, from the back of the course bulletin each semester, and from the catalog. Be sure you have passed the Regents test before or while taking ENLG When you are at or very near the end of your Core Curriculum, make an appointment to talk to a inology faculty advisor and complete necessary forms to declare a inology major. See the Secretary in the Department and ask to be assigned an advisor. Complete the major course requirements (see attached). If you are having difficulties completing these requirements because of scheduling or other problems, discuss that with your advisor and ask about possible substitutions. Substitutions must be with good cause and reasonable. Substitutions must also be approved by your advisor and the Department Chair. Upper division supporting courses (9 hours) need to be courses from other disciplines that are relevant to your area of interest and need to be approved by your advisor. Upper division inology courses (12 hours) can be chosen to provide a concentration in a particular area (law enforcement, corrections, juvenile justice) if you like. Discuss that with your advisor if that is your goal. Complete 2 WAC courses. One must be in the major and the other can be in the major or in another discipline. The inology Capstone course, required for all majors, is a WAC course, so you only need to choose one more. NOTE: Each semester during advising time, make an appointment to see your advisor. Be prepared when you go for your advising appointment. Look at the bulletin ahead of time and have an idea of the courses you want to take. Update your major course requirements sheet each semester so you can keep track of what courses you have taken and what courses you still need. If you are unable to register for a course after you and your advisor have agreed on what you should take and your advisor has signed your registration form, go back and discuss other options with your advisor. DO NOT JUST ARBITRARILY REGISTER FOR COURSES WITHOUT SEEING AN ADVISOR AND LATER GET UPSET WITH YOUR ADVISOR AND/OR REGISTRAR IF THOSE COURSES DO NOT MEET ANY OF YOUR REQUIREMENTS. When you reach Senior status, go to the Registrar s Office and request a Senior Evaluation. The next time you seek advising after getting your Senior Evaluation, take it with you to your advisor and have him/her check over it with you to be sure there are no errors. Apply for graduation at the beginning of the semester prior to the semester in which you plan to graduate. Check with the bookstore at the beginning of the semester you plan to graduate to order invitations, cap, gown, etc. GRADUATE!!!
