I have a disability. What resources are available for me?
The Accessibility Services Center (ASC) collaborates with students, administrators, faculty, and staff to ensure that we provide reasonable and appropriate accommodations for our students with disabilities. ASC offers a full range of campus support services to ensure the success of our students.
How do I change/declare my major?
If you want to change, add, or drop a major, minor, concentration, or college after starting your first semester, you should schedule an appointment to meet with or call the Academic Advisor in the department you wish to change to.
You can find contact information for advising offices at the following link: Find Your Academic Advisor.
Once a student has decided to make the change official, the academic advisor will submit a Change of Program eForm in MavLINK on their behalf.
This eForm will route to any necessary approvers for review before being processed by the Office of the University Registrar. The student and submitting advisor will receive email notifications once the change has been processed.
