A change-of-major/minor form must be filed with the Registrar’s Office. Students pursuing majors that include concentrations should declare the concentration as soon as one has been identified. If a student changes a major/minor, including changing from an undeclared major, a C-, 1.70 or lower received in previous courses and not required by the new major/minor will not be used in the computation of the GPA if the student requests it. Undeclared students must demonstrate that a course was taken when considering a major. This information must be verified in writing by the Director of Undeclared Students. The student must request the change in computation on a form available from the Registrar while currently enrolled, not post-graduation. Credit for these courses cannot be claimed in the future including for graduation.
Although these grades are not computed in the grade point average, they remain on the transcript.
