If arrangements are made in advance, credit toward the writing minor can also be given for internships which involve a great deal of writing or editing and for courses in other departments which involve internship-type experience and a significant amount of writing. Because of the importance of directed experience in writing, students pursuing this minor are strongly encouraged to write for campus publications and/or work on the staff of the Academic Support Center.

Writing courses which count toward an English major, an English minor, or an English/ Communication Composite major may not be counted toward a writing minor. Students should be aware that the writing minor is not approved for teacher certification by the state.

For answers to questions about a writing minor or to declare a writing minor, please consult with the advisor for English minors, Myra Kohsel (LH 338).
