2016-2017 Graduate

Application for a Change of Major

Currently enrolled graduate students may apply to change their major from one graduate program to another or from one emphasis to another with the approval of the school for both program areas and final approval by the Graduate School.

The student must complete a Request for Change of Major form and submit it to the Graduate School www.unco.edu/grad/forms/pdfs/ChangeMajor.pdf. The Graduate School will forward the request to the new program along with access to the student's electronic application file. After the Graduate School receives the new department's or program's decision indicating approval or denial of the student's change of major request, the Graduate School will notify the student of the decision.

NOTE: A change of emphasis is equivalent to a change of major.
