Change of Major or Minor and Catalog Year
The official university catalog is the primary resource for students who are considering changing their major or minor. Review the catalog for critical information about degree requirements and view a "What If I change My Major" evaluation on Web Advisor. Degree Requirements for Minors are viewed only from the catalog. After completing the research, the students must meet with a faculty advisor or a department chair prior to submitting the form to the Registrar's Office to change their major or minor. The Change of Major/Minor Form from the selected catalog year will indicate which programs require a signature from the department chair. Academic Departments approving the programs may forward the form to the Registrar's Office on behalf of the student. A student may design his or her own major in consultation with an academic advisor. The student designs a program from existing courses, which opens up a new direction of study or allows for significantly more intensive study in an area offered at Chapman. Approval of an academic advisor and sponsoring department is required. Self-designed majors require the approval of the Faculty Academic Council. Self-designed minors require the approval of the GE Committee. Consult page two of the appropriate form for further information. The preferred method for submitting the Change of Major/Minor Form is to attach one of the forms below to an e-mail addressed to aps@chapman.edu. The email must be sent through the student's Chapman e-mail account for authentication. Printed and signed forms may be faxed to (714) 628-3402, or mailed to the Registrar's Office Academic Program Specialists.
Students have the option to declare an Inter/Multidisciplinary Cluster. This is required for students who will not be completing a minor or a second major.
