Changing Her Minor - Amy

Last semester, Amy added an Information Systems minor to her business degree.

She had a bunch of IS classes this semester but found them to be overwhelming and of little interest.

She considered moving her minor back to Marketing since she had already taken a number of classes with that emphasis. She planned to talk with her counselor at UVU to set up a new plan moving forward.

Her counselor was not available, but she met with another one who has been such a tremendous help. He "locked in" her graduation plan, helped her change her minor, and worked with her to drop 2 or 3 of her IS classes and switch to a few marketing classes.

Unfortunately, she was already 2 1/2 weeks into the semester and had a lot of work to do to catch up in the new marketing classes. BUT... she is more at peace with this direction. In fact, her whole demeanor and attitude shifted in a happy way just by changing her minor and ensuring that she will graduate in December!
