<p>You would have to take five classes (including S250) to get the minor.</p>
<hr>
<p>Did you know that after S250 you would only need 4 more classes to receive your minor?
- The Spanish minor is 15 hours at or above the 250 level: S250, S275, S310, and two additional courses at the 300 or 400 level

<p>That’s a lot if you don’t like Spanish. </p>
<p>You actually would be three credits more than necessary to fulfill the International Dimension requirement by taking S250 (and S250 won’t apply to the distribution option), when you could take two “area studies” classes (probably in the S&H distribution) that also double count for the 27 credit hour distribution option. The problem with that, in you case, is that there probably are not any area studies classes that would apply to the minors you are interested in. So if you are going to pursue minor like technology management or communications, it is probably better to just take S250 and get the international dimension out of the way.
