All current classes in progress, completed or needed to finish the degree plan are within the Cougar Compass audit. To change your major, log into your CougarWeb account and under the Home Tab select REQUEST CHANGE OF MAJOR.
Schedule Changes During online registration, you may add and/or drop classes by accessing CougarWeb. You may add and/or drop classes using CougarWeb through the first four days of the term during a long semester and during the first day of summer or mini-semester terms.
Steps for Major Change Students must meet with an advisor in the major they would like to switch into. That advisor will evaluate the student's credits to determine eligibility. If eligible, that advisor will submit the major change request.
Most colleges require formal paperwork to change majors, which might include filling out a change of major form, obtaining approval from the dean or department head, and updating your academic records.
To request a change in your degree program and/or have transcripts evaluated, login to CougarWeb. Under Student Quick Links, select "Request Change of Major." Candidates for an Associate degree or Certificate should submit a petition for graduation by the deadline established for that semester.
Petition for Degree / Certificate Under Student Quick Links, select "Apply to Graduate." Students may complete a "Petition for Degree / Certificate" at any of our Student Enrollment and Services offices or you can download a form from the Admission Forms section of our web site.
Students are able to withdraw from a class (or classes) on CougarWeb. CougarWeb will process total withdrawals.
