THE MAJOR IN THE ARTS: VISUAL STUDIES CONCENTRATION
This is a worksheet for Arts majors concentrating in Visual Studies. (Arts in Context Concentrations please find your worksheet at Lang's Website).

As of fall 2020, students declaring the major in The Arts must take twelve (12) courses, outlined as follows. Students must earn a grade of C or higher in all courses to meet the requirements for the major in The Arts. A minimum GPA of 3.0 is expected for all students intending to declare a major in The Arts (slightly lower GPAs can be accepted if the student receives an A in the Introductory course connected to their area, or both Introductory courses if the student is mixing and matching between areas).

Declare your major by following the process outlined in Declaring a Major. Students who have declared the major in The Arts prior to fall 2020 but wish to follow the fall 2020 curriculum may consult their Student Success Advisor about submitting a Change of Catalog Year request.

Only specific courses satisfy the major requirements, including electives. Courses should be chosen carefully, in consultation with the Director of Undergraduate Studies/Departmental Faculty Advisor and your Student Success advisor. Track your progress on a copy of this worksheet.
