Fiber Science Minor
College of Human Ecology
Program Description
The Minor requires a minimum of 15-17 credit hours of work, all of which must be within FSAD.
Admission Requirements
Submit the Intent to Minor form any time after you have completed at least one of the courses required for the minor. Keep a copy of the form for reference. Note that to receive any consideration or priority for course enrollment, a form must have been submitted prior to the semester in which enrollment is desired. Formally declaring intent to minor in Fiber Science does not guarantee that a student will be able to take an offered FSAD course.
Students who complete the Intent to Minor in Fiber Science form will be given preference for admission to FSAD courses once students in the major are accommodated, with the stipulation that studio and lab courses are capped.
Plan a course of study to complete minor requirements. It is the student's responsibility to keep track of courses required and completed toward the minor; students will not be assigned an FSAD advisor. Only Fiber Science & Apparel Design courses may be used to satisfy the requirement of the minor.
Students must earn a grade of B- or better in courses required by the minor.
During the semester in which you are planning to graduate, submit an Application to Graduate with a Minor in Fiber Science form, include an unofficial copy of your transcript by March 15th to FSAD Undergraduate Coordinator in T57 HEB or fsad-dus@cornell.edu.
After it has been verified that you have completed all of the requirements for the minor, your college registrar will be notified, and your final transcript will indicate that you are earned a minor in Fiber Science.
Questions should be addressed to the FSAD Undergraduate Coordinator or the Director of Undergraduate Studies at fsad-dus@cornell.edu.
