Advising Notes

Important Notes for Human Services majors from Advising:

  • All Human Services majors are required to minor in one of the five fields that comprise the major: Criminal Justice, Political Science, Psychology, Sociology, or Social Work. For your introductory course choose a course in the area that interests you most as a potential minor. 
  • Human Services is a small major. If you are unable to enroll in one of the recommended major courses for the fall semester, it is completely fine to substitute that course with an additional Core class or your foreign language requirement.  
  • Don’t forget to check the AP/IB guide to ensure you know if you have any incoming credit that will count towards your Core requirements. 
  • If you prefer to take a foreign language in your first semester, you may do so and make room by swapping out one Core class. Be sure to take your placement exam unless you have no classroom experience with the language. The placement exam will tell you which course to enroll in for fall.
