Undergraduate Change of Major

**Graduate Level students are not permitted to change the major or minor using this form. Please contact the Graduate School for assistance.**

Degree-seeking undergraduate students may use the Undergraduate Major/Minor Change online form to request a change to their degree, major, minor and/or concentration. All requests to add a major, minor and/or concentration must be reviewed and certified by your new College/School designee before being made official. If approved, you will receive an email with a confirmation of approval.

Newly admitted first-semester students should contact Undergraduate Admissions to change their degree, major and/or concentration prior to the first semester. Non-degree-seeking students must also contact Undergraduate Admissions if they wish to become degree-seeking students.

Note: Only one transaction is permitted each time you complete this form. If you wish to drop and add, you will need to drop first and then return to the form to add.

Expect 5-10 business days for processing to occur. You will see the new major/minor/concentration reflected in your Degreeworks header and/or in your Registration screen in NEST.
