Change of Major
Newly Admitted Students
Newly admitted students must complete their first semester and earn an SJSU GPA before submitting a change of major request. Newly admitted students cannot change their major prior to or during orientation and will need to attend orientation with the college housing their admitted major. However, students with an interest in changing their major will have an opportunity to let the orientation advisors know that they plan to change majors. This information will be taken into consideration when advising students for their first semester.
Make an Appointment
Students interested in a major within the College of Health and Human Sciences (CHHS) are encouraged to schedule an appointment with an advisor. During the appointment, students can learn more about the major’s required courses, GPA requirements, and application process.
Students interested in majors outside of CHHS should contact the department that offers the major they want to pursue. To find the right contact, refer to the Undergraduate Advisor Directory.
