Declaring Communication majors and minors
It is important that students declare their major or minor so that the School administration can more accurately plan course offerings. Some students think they have to complete all the major pre-reqs in order to declare their pre-com major. More students are waiting until they have all the pre-major courses completed before they move from University Curriculum or another department. Not only does it hinder administrative planning, but also hinders the students because they are not receiving correct curriculum or major advising.
The sooner students are declared in the School of Communication, the sooner we can get them on the correct path to graduation, make sure they are working on a minor and make sure they are working on the correct curriculum requirements.
If a student needs to declare a pre-major, they should visit undergraduate advisor's homepage and set up an appointment to see the advisor. The advisor will help them
plan completing their major, give them minor options and refer them to the correct curriculum advising office.
Below is specific information for declaring actual majors and minors.
Please take a moment to officially declare your major. This
saves time during your graduation audit, makes you eligible for scholarships and allows you access to more classes.
You may access the on-line "declare your major ' or 'declare your minor'' forms by visiting the undergraduate advisor's website.
Click on Communication majors on the menu and select your desired major/minor. Follow the prompts and submit your on-line major/minor application. You will receive your major/minor slip via ground mail within 3 weeks.
Please remember you can declare either a communication major or minor, but not both.
