Change of Minor

• Start by reviewing undergraduate minors offered at Qatar University
• Review study plans of minors you consider selecting. Study plans may be available on the webpage of the department offering the program
• Consult your academic advisor for more information on your best-fit program based on your academic progress so far
• Evaluate the career opportunities of minors you are interested in by using the helpful tools offered by the Career Development Center

There are two types of change of minor requirements; general requirements set by the University and specific requirements set by each college individually. In order to be eligible for change of minor, you are expected to satisfy both, unless otherwise stated.

General Requirements

• You may change your minor given that this change should occur prior to completing 12  credit hours in the minor and 90 undergraduate earned hours in general
• Change of minor is extremely competitive; satisfying the minimum requirements does not guarantee admission
• In all cases, the sought college must approve change of minor applications, taking into consideration their transfer requirements and available capacity

Specific College Requirements
