DECLARE OR CHANGE MAJOR GUIDELINES
An application to declare or change your major must be approved by the appropriate Department/Centre.
Where programs have enrolment limits, admission is not guaranteed by attaining minimum requirements. Please
ensure that you check the appropriate Undergraduate Calendar at: brocku.ca/webcal for specific program
requirements and progression standards.
It is strongly recommended that you book an advising appointment with the appropriate Faculty, Department, or
Program Advisor prior to submitting your application to discuss eligibility for program admission. For a complete
list of Academic Advisors, please refer to: brocku.ca/academic-advising/find-your-advisor/
To allow timely consideration, you should ensure that your application to declare or change your major is
submitted prior to registration for the next academic session (for Fall/Winter, preferably by the end of the April
exam period).
Please note that program changes mid-academic session will not result in a tuition adjustment. The tuition
adjustment will not reflect the program change until the following academic year.
