Undergraduate Minor Petition Requirements
All 20 units must be completed in order to receive the minor certification. For the minor to be awarded, the OASIS Minor Declaration Form must be approved prior to graduation. The Minor Declaration form will only be approved after the student is enrolled in the final course for the minor. Please view instructions on how to submit the petition below.
How to declare a public health minor. You should file your minor petition when you have taken or are registered for all classes you need to fulfill the minor requirements.

To file your petition go to Oasis, click "forms and petitions" click submit a new form, click minor declaration, fill out information, note any classes that overlap with your major or other circumstances in the comments, if necessary upload any documents, and submit!
