-
When do I need to declare my major or minor?
You should declare a major by the time you move to sophomore standing (at least 30 hours total). Please be aware though of any selective admissions policies for your intended major. Those programs can be found here: Controlled Access Programs
A minor should ideally be declared at the same time you declare your major, but no later than the semester before graduation, preferably by the time you reach senior standing (90 hours total with at least 30 hours at the 3000/4000 level). Please note that some minors cannot be completed in one academic year due to course sequencing restrictions.
-
What are the different majors and minors that I can declare?
For a complete list of Majors and Minors, please visit our 九色视频 catalog: http://www.unf.edu/catalog/programs/ug/ -
What is the difference between a double major and a dual degree?
- Double Majors: Double Majors are earning a combination of either two Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science Degrees. Double Majors do not need to declare a minor, but must still meet all the requirements of the majors. A course taken to fulfill a major requirement for the primary major may not count again to meet a requirement for the secondary major. (120 hours total).
-
Dual degrees: A simultaneous or dual degree student is defined as one who completes requirements for two different degrees simultaneously whether in the same college or across colleges, e.g., earning a BFA degree while also earning a BA degree, or a BS degree and a BBA degree, etc.
Students in the College of Arts and Sciences may pursue two simultaneous/dual undergraduate degrees across colleges if the second college agrees to the arrangement. -
When do I talk to my Department Chair vs. an Advisor?
A student's first line of action is their designated Academic Advisor to define the needs and work with the student through the Department(s).
An Advisor may refer a student to the Chair for a variety of reasons, a few of which include when a student is returning from Suspension when transfer coursework needs to be reviewed by the department to see which courses can transfer into the major, when a student is having a dispute with a professor, or if a student is in need of a substitute course to allow them to graduate in a particular semester.
