Students who maintain a 3.5 overall grade-point average and a 3.6 grade-point average in the major are welcomed to pursue Distinction in the Major. In addition to maintaining the GPA, by the time of graduation, students must have completed 8 units of Independent Studies (Geography 199), graduate-level courses, or a combination of the two. Students must obtain permission from a faculty member and the department chair to take part in these courses. Please contact the undergraduate advisor for more information.
