Initially, 2 is sufficient, 3 is alright, but when it gets to 4 or 5, I think that's a tad too much. I would get them if all the credits are done already, unless it's a minor you're really interested in... I would check to see if it's worth the extra energy, money, time to get all of them. If it checks out for you, then go for the extra minors...
UMPI has one of the most generous policies about classes fulfilling multiple GERs and Major/Minor requirements . For their minors, you only have to have 9 unique credits for each minor.
Because I did the BLS , a lot of my UL courses were in BUS with one in HIST. But then I really enjoyed the 1 HIST class I took with Dr. Z for the ULs, so, I added the Social Studies Minor because I had enough transfer credits where I only needed 4 classes for that minor.
Because of all the BUS courses I took as part of my UL electives, and how similar the MGMT and Project MGMT minors are, I looked, and it turned out I was only one class away from the Project MGMT Minor (that I originally started with before switching to MGMT) , so I said "why not, lets just do it. "
But then after the MGMT Minor and transfer credits, I was only 3 classes away from the Business Admin minor, so once again I said "Why not".
I'm done, I'm just waiting on grades and degree conferral, but , what was only supposed to be 7 classes this term turned into 15 , so yes my brain feels fried
You were able to receive all those minors from YourPace? I didn't see Business Admin or Social Studies as available options on the list that Jessica sent me. I was just planning on doing Management, Project Management, and maybe History. I'd love a Business Admin minor though.
