Can a cross-listed course count for both Sociology and Criminal Justice double majors?
Yes
Can a course “double count” for major & group requirements?
Yes
If I receive a grade below C- in a required Criminal Justice course, do I need to repeat the course?
Yes
If I receive a grade of C- in a required Sociology course, do I need to repeat the course?
For
Sociology 201, if you pass the class (grade higher than an F, but below a
C-) you do NOT need to repeat the class. The credits do not count
towards the major, so you will need to take another sociology class to
replace the credits. For Sociology 301 and 312, the class needs to be
repeated.
Who do I contact to do an internship?
Criminal Justice contact: Aaron Fichtelberg afichte@udel.edu
Sociology contact: the Sociology faculty of your choice to see if she/he would be willing to do an internship with you.

If I am planning on a study abroad experience through a University other than UD, can I still get transfer credit?
Yes,
but the program must be accredited and you have to have approval in
advance on a course-by-course basis from the UD department where
equivalent course is housed.
