Enrollment Information

Complete the following steps to enroll in the Latin American Studies (LAS) Undergraduate Minor or Certificate:

1. Make an advising appointment with Dr. Richmond Brown, LAS Undergraduate Coordinator, by calling 352-392-0375 ext. 807 or visiting 319 Grinter Hall. Before the appointment, be sure to review the list of Latin American Studies courses, available online or at the main office of the Center in 319 Grinter Hall.

2. If you are unable to see Dr. Brown during office hours, download the appropriate form for the Minor or Certificate:

Complete the form with your personal information and the courses you have taken that you think will count for the Minor or Certificate as either a core or elective courses. Send the form to Dr. Brown as an e-mail attachment (rfbrown@latam.ufl.edu). She will advise you by phone or e-mail until an appointment can be scheduled.

3. LAS Minor students also need to complete the Application to Add or Cancel a Minor and submit it to the UF Office of the University Registrar in 222 Criser Hall. Be sure to have the Dean of Liberal Arts and Sciences sign the form. This form can be downloaded from this page or obtained in Room 100 Academic Advising Center or Room 222 Criser Hall.

4. Once you are enrolled for the LAS Minor or Certificate, plan to meet with Dr. Brown each semester, preferably prior to registration.

5. Final certification for both the Minor and Certificate is completed by Dr. Brown. Completion of the LAS Minor will appear on the transcript, while the LAS Certificate will be mailed to the student’s permanent address after graduation.
