Student Success Communication Campaign
Student Message
Thinking about your major? If you want to declare, change, or re-declare your major, Sept. 17 is the deadline to do so for Fall 2026: Declaration of Major Application. Take some time this week to check in on your academic plan. Are you making progress toward your degree? Is your current major still a good fit for your goals? As your interests and goals develop, it’s common to make adjustments to your academic plan.
Keep building on your progress day to day: organize your assignments, prioritize upcoming deadlines, and connect with your professors and tutoring centers for support when you need it.
