The PSY 210 requirement may be waived if the student takes either: one of the following courses: PSY 211, ECN 209, ECN 215, HES 262; or one of the following pairs of courses: BEM 201 and BEM 202, BEM 201 and FIN 203, BEM 201 and STA 112, POL 280 and STA 111, SOC 271 and SOC 272. If the PSY 210 course requirement is waived by replacement, a student will then be required to take an additional course for the Minor to achieve the 15 credit hours required for completion.
No more than six hours will be accepted for courses taken at other schools and courses taught by another Wake Forest department to be counted toward the 15 hours required for the minor. A maximum of three of those six hours may come from online courses. The courses taught by another Wake Forest department that may be accepted are: BEM 211, EDU 211, HES 312, LIN 330. BEM 211 and HES 312 fall within the Applied Psychology and Mental Health Tier; EDU 211 and LIN 330 fit in the Brain and Cognitive Sciences Tier. A student may not take both BEM 211 and PSY 261 for psychology credit.
