Declaration or Change of Major
A major may be declared or changed by contacting the department of the proposed major. A second major or minor may be declared by following the same procedure. The advisor assigned by the chairperson in the student's major department is responsible for the student's advising until the student changes major, graduates, withdraws or until the advisor hold is released. No advisor is assigned for minors; however, the minor department chairperson must verify completion of minor.
Students may earn up to 30 credit hours, inclusive of transfer credits, before they must declare a major, affiliate with a department and enter the regular advising system.
Students who change their major should be aware that their total graduation hours may exceed 120 semester hours.
