Change of Major Process and General Forms

  • Undergraduate Major/Minor Change 
    • To request a change of major, you will need to schedule an appointment with an advisor for the new intended major to determine the requirements for the new major/minor/certificate.  
    • If the program is outside of the COS and will be added to your existing COS major, you will also need to discuss the change with a COS advisor by appointment or by e-mail.  
    • Once you have had one or both of the above conversations, then you can submit the requested change by e-mail (i.e. “I would like to add an XXXX minor to my degree”).  
    • An advisor from the appropriate college will submit the change on your behalf.
