Declaring An Academic Major

Table of Contents

The College requires students to declare an academic major upon completion of 54 credit hours, but students may do so after the completion of 39 credit hours. Be advised that NCAA rules stipulate that student-athletes must declare their academic major prior to the fifth semester of enrollment to be eligible for intercollegiate competition. Transfer students must include semesters taken elsewhere when calculating the semesters of enrollment.

Forms can be found in the Academic Support Services Office. If you have questions please contact your Faculty Academic Adviser or an Academic Support Services staff member.
