Declaring/Changing Your Adviser or Major

All undergraduate students are assigned a faculty adviser upon admission. If a major area of interest has been indicated on the admissions application, the student’s major is listed also. First year and transfer students enrolled in Gateways or Pathways to Honors are advised by the instructors of those classes, changing to a faculty adviser in their major upon completion. Students enrolled through Continuing Studies are advised by staff advisers there. Students who wish to change adviser or change/declare a major may do so in the University Academic Advising Office. Students are required to officially declare a major by the time they have earned 60 credit hours. Once the degree audit has been filed with the Registrar’s Office, any change in major or minor must be reported to that office.
