The minor is open to all UCF students. A minimum GPA of 2.0 is required in all course work used to satisfy the minor and grades less than "C-" (1.75) are not accepted. Internship or independent study credit cannot be used toward the minor.
No credit by exam (TSD, Military credit) may be used.

-
Criminal Justice System
- Crime in America
- Prosecution and Adjudication

Application Process
There is no application process per se, rather students declare a minor. To declare a minor, a student must complete a Minor Declaration form, which can be done online through the student's MyUCF account or picked up in the Office of Undergraduate Student Services (HPA II Suite 115).

Students are strongly urged to officially declare a minor as early as possible but no later than the submission of their UCF Intent to Graduate Form (must be completed the semester before the student intends to graduate).
