Double Majors

Students may be afforded the opportunity to be enrolled in more than one major. In order to enroll in more than one major, a written request must be submitted to the Dean for Academic Affairs for the desired second major. The request must include the student’s name, student ID number, current major, desired second major, and the reason why the student desires to pursue a double major. Criteria used to determine if a student is eligible for a double major include, but are not limited to:

• Overall GPA at time of request
• Course history
• Advisor/faculty recommendation
• Within one semester of completing current program
• A relationship between the current and requested programs

Students will be allowed to enroll in only programs that are of the same level (Degree-Degree, Diploma-Diploma, Certificate-Certificate, etc.). Any courses that are common to both majors will not have to be repeated. In order to maintain double major status, a student must take at least one course from each program concurrently.
