Declaring or Changing a Major or Minor

University Policy

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 submit a Declaration or Change of Major/Minor Form through CAS Academic Advising.

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 submit a CAS Declaration or Change of Major/Minor Form through CAS Academic Advising.
