Second Major

A student pursuing a degree from the University may choose to add a second major by completing all of the required course work (including any core courses) deemed necessary by the department of the second major. The course requirements for any second major are available from the chair of the department in which the second major resides. A second major cannot be converted to a first major unless the student also changes his/her degree program to one in which the major is allowed as a first major. For example, a student pursuing a B.A. degree with a first major in Biblical Studies and a second major in Psychology cannot change to a first major in Psychology without also changing his/her degree program to a B.S. degree. A student who chooses to add a second major will have that second major appear on his/her transcript. If a second major is earned, a minor is not required.

(Note: Refer to General Requirements for Graduation for minimum number of 300- and 400-level major and minor semester hours.)
