Declaring or Changing a Major or Minor

University Policy

Students must declare a concentration before registering for their junior year. To declare or to change an already declared concentration, students must complete a Program Change form, obtainable from their school or college.

College of Arts & Sciences Policy

To ensure that each student is well advised in electing a major (or minor) or in changing from one major (or minor) to another, and to ensure that all faculty and administrative offices concerned are properly informed, it is important that students file a Declaration or Change of Major/Minor Form in the CAS Student Records Office, CAS Room B3.

All students must declare a major before registering for the junior year. Students making application to the independent major program are encouraged to do so well before official registration periods.

Although a minor is not required, students who wish to elect a minor must file a CAS Declaration or Change of Major/Minor Form in the CAS Student Records Office, CAS Room B3.
