Declaring an ARHU major

To declare a major in the College of Arts and Humanities:

  • Students should contact the department in which they would like to major.  Students and their departmental advisors will fill out an academic plan.
  • Students are responsible for bringing their academic plan to a second meeting with an Arts and Humanities College advisor.  Students and their ARHU advisor will complete the academic plan and complete the change of major process*.
*Students may not change their major during walk-in advising.

Contacting an advisor

ARHU advisors are available in the Office of Student Affairs (OSA) for 30-minute appointments. Additionally, walk-in advising is available everyday on a first come/first served basis.
