Dear Isabelle,
There's usually no cap on the number of minors a student can opt for, but this is subject to the rules of the specific educational institution.
A minor is essentially a secondary academic field that students can decide to concentrate on, besides their major. It generally demands fewer credits than a major and offers students the opportunity to delve into another area of interest. The number of minors a student can opt for differs from one college or university to another.
In many schools, there's no official cap on the number of minors a student can opt for. However, students need to make sure they have sufficient time and credits to complete all necessary coursework for their chosen minor(s) and major, as well as any general education requirements. Some schools may also impose restrictions on which minors can be paired with certain majors.
For instance, at the University of Washington in Seattle, where the student who posed this question is studying, there's no specified cap on the number of minors a student can opt for. However, students are required to complete at least 25 credits in their minor field, with a minimum of 15 of those credits being at the upper division level (300-400). Students are urged to discuss with their academic advisor to ensure they can fulfill all requirements for their selected minor(s) and major.
In conclusion, while there might not be an official cap on the number of minors a student can opt for, students need to thoughtfully plan their academics and discuss with their advisor to ensure they can fulfill all requirements for their selected minor(s) and major.
Stay blessed!

I don't think so; however, I would ask the university/college about it.
