It should be noted that Finance majors will take AC 221 through FN 442 as part of the finance major and therefore will need to take MA 151 through MA 331 for the minor. Students who are Mathematics majors will take MA 151 through MA 331 as part of the math major and therefore will need to take AC 221 through FN 442 for the minor. Either major may apply FN 499/MA 349 toward the major. The curriculum for the Finance major students will allow them to do two minors in Mathematics and Actuarial Science.
