Satisfactory completion of the Actuarial Science major automatically qualifies the student to apply for a minor
in mathematics. Students are ready to take the first and second actuarial exams at the end of their junior and
senior years, respectively. Students are encouraged to participate in a summer internship during their
junior/senior year. In the past, these internships have proven to be most valuable to students and their
subsequent job search.
