An academic advisor is assigned to each student who declares their first major to be in the College of Social and Behavioral Sciences. This person can be critically important to a successful academic experience, and you are encouraged to meet with their advisor frequently and to develop a positive working relationship with your advisor. Please feel free to request a different advisor for whatever reason you may have. You can make the request at the department office of your major.
You should go to the department office of their chosen major to declare a major. At that time you will be assigned an academic advisor. Also, at the department office, you may receive permission to take upper division classes (numbered 300-400) once you have completed 32 semester hours and have at least a 2.0 GPA. Check with your advisor to learn if there are additional requirements to be admitted to your major or program.
