Concentrations

Office of the Registrar · Room A-112 · ext. 2250

A concentration is a defined sequence within an existing program. Concentrations are approved by the Curriculum Committee and published by catalog addendum; they do not require action by the Board of Trustees or the College’s accreditor. A concentration does not change the program’s award or credit-hour total; concentration coursework is completed within the program’s existing elective hours. Completion of a concentration is noted on the transcript. A concentration is not a separate credential and does not qualify a graduate for any license or certification that the program itself does not.

The four concentrations added by Addendum No. 1 take effect with the Spring 2027 term. They may not be declared before that term. Students who intend to declare one should consult the coordinator named below.

Admission requirements, enrollment limits, and declaration procedures are stated in each program listing, which incorporates the addendum text. Applied Clowning concentrations are declared in the third semester. The Venomous Species concentration admits no more than four students per year. Where this page and an addendum differ, the addendum governs. See Catalog Addenda.
