Declaration of Major

Students must declare a major by the end of the sophomore year.  Students may file a Declaration of Major form, by completing an online form (located on the Portal) which is approved by the advisor, department chair, and the Registrar.  The completed form will be processed by the office of the Registrar. Before students can register as juniors, they must file a Declaration of Major or a waiver if they have not yet declared a major.

Department chairs may refuse to accept students as majors if student performance in the proposed major field has been unsatisfactory. Students may be dropped as majors because of unsatisfactory progress.
