What isthe diferrence between major and minor in university,and how many credits i should have toget a degree?

Answer 1

It depends on many things, including if your college runs under a quarter or semester system. A major is where the majority of your credits will be, and your minor is kind of like a specialization or a way of saying "...but I did a lot of this too" under your main focus. I would suggest speaking to an adviser or looking at the college's handbook to find out the total number of credits needed for both.
