Tips:

• You must add your new major before removing your current major.
• If a major requires an application, select the Intended major.
• If you have been admitted to a high-demand major and you are changing from the intended major to the major (ex: Intended Dietetics to Dietetics), the major must be approved by the department before you can delete the intended major.  Don’t forget to go back later and delete the intended major!  Otherwise, both will be on your record.
• If the major or minor you declare requires approval, this will prevent any further changes until the approval is granted.  Remember you can always cancel the request that needs approval, perform the other actions, then resubmit the request that needs approval.
• If you have a minor you are trying to change to a major, drop the minor first.  Otherwise, the major will not appear as an option.
