Change of Major

If your current major is not a good fit or your would like to adjust/add/remove a minor/concentration, we understand that you may want to consider changing it. Be sure to view the resources below in regards to consulting with the proper office to change your major and the potential impact to your degree progression and finances.

Importance of Timing for the Request

A change of major must be requested by the end of the Schedule Adjustment Period for it to be effective for the active term. If a request is received after the Schedule Adjustment Period, the Change of Major will be effective for the next term.
