Hi there,
I’m a 2nd year student currently majoring in CCIT. I initially applied for Anthropology and Sociology minors in my subject POSts. Since I didn’t reach the grade average for Sociology, I’m temporarily enrolled in a History minor instead. Does this mean I’m required to take History courses this year? I’m enrolled in a History course for 2nd semester, but I have no interest in it at all and I’m debating on whether or not I should drop.
For the Sociology minor, It says the grade average among all Sociology courses to get into the minor program must be at least 63% when applying in subsequent years . I took SOC100 during 1st year and SOC244 in summer school, but I ended up with a 60% in both courses. I’m taking another Sociology course next semester to hopefully get my average up.
Do you have any advice on what I should do in the meantime? Do I have to wait until the next subject POSt enrolment date to re-apply?
Thanks!

hey there,
so, a coupla things here. first, you do have to wait until the next POSt enrolment date to apply. for you, that’s march 18th?since sociology is a type 2 subject POSt. (that’s earlier than the downtown campus, ya lucky butt).
as for history, they don’t require that you take certain courses in specific years, so i’d say you can get away with not taking any history courses if you don’t want to. if you have no interest in that history course you’re enrolled in, then i’d advise you drop it. drop it right away. ain’t no time to waste on lame courses you have no interest in.
as for what you can do in the meantime, i’d say there’s not much. if you can take another sociology course this term to give you another chance to up your sociology average, go for that, but if that’s not an option, just sit tight, man. i’d say you’re doing everything you can.
so long and good luck!
