Undergraduate students declare or change their academic programs (i.e. majors and minors) and/or change their academic advisors using the following form:
Undergraduate Declaration/Change of Program or Minor Form (PDF)
Don't overlook the value of a minor in your education! Click the link below for more information on minors and some terrific major/minor pairings:
Choosing a Minor Information Sheet (PDF)
All matriculated undergraduate students will declare their major(s) and minor(s) by completing this form and submitting it to the Registrar's Office (See exceptions to this below for undergrad education declarations). Students may declare a major and minor(s) at any point after entering the college (see freshmen limitations and transfer notes below). All students MUST declare a major by a deadline in the middle of the 4th semester (example: Spring of the sophomore year). Declaration deadlines are published on the Academic Calendars for each term. Additionally, students should use this form to select an advisor in their intended major of study; students are reminded that their academic advisor must be a faculty member in the department that offers each major and minor.
Important Notes:
New freshman degree students are assigned an “Undeclared” program and an academic advisor from the Office of Academic Advising. They will continue with their primary advisor until the second semester of their sophomore year, when they will transition to a faculty advisor in their major department. Students may declare majors/minors at any time after entry to the College, but no later than the declaration deadline during the sophomore year. Students who declare a major prior to that deadline will continue to be advised by their primary advisor from the Office of Academic Advising, but they will add a faculty co-advisor for the major.
Transfer students entering the College with advanced standing having earned transfer credit are advised to speak with an advisor and declare a major as early as possible; this will allow transfer students to accurately assess their intended date of graduation and focus on a program of study.
Students with multiple majors will designate a major advisor in each department.
The declaration form must be signed by the appropriate department chairpersons (or their designees), by the new advisor, and by the student. Forms without all required signatures will be deemed incomplete, and will not be accepted.
Prospective Education 2nd Majors and Art Ed Minors: Please do NOT use the declaration form! You must formally apply to the School of Education and be accepted into an undergraduate education area. See the School of Education's undergraduate advisor for an application. Once you are accepted, your undergrad education area will be assigned to you by the Registrar's Office.
CAUTION: Changing from one degree program to another may extend your graduation date! Consult with an advisor to gauge the requirements of a new major before proceeding.
MINORS: As of January 2014, minors became OPTIONAL for undergraduates. They are no longer a graduation requirement. Students should still consider declaring a minor to broaden their education and explore an academic area of interest. Visit the Choosing a Minor Information Sheet.
Graduate & Doctoral Students: Please DO NOT use the form above. Continue to process program changes using existing procedures with your respective graduate and doctoral program advisor(s).
Completed forms should be submitted to the Registrar's Office (REID Castle, 3rd fl) will be processed within 3-5 business days.
