Change of Major or Minor and Catalog Year

Newly admitted students who have not yet attended Chapman, see the Change of Major for New Students page.

The official university catalog is the primary resource for students who are considering changing their major or minor. Review the catalog for critical information about degree requirements and view a "What If I change My Major" evaluation on Web Advisor. Degree Requirements for Minors are viewed only from the catalog.

After completing the research, the students must meet with a faculty advisor or a department chair prior to submitting the form to the Registrar's Office to change their major or minor. The Change of Major/Minor Form from the selected catalog year will indicate which programs require a signature from the department chair. Academic Departments approving the programs may forward the form to the Registrar's Office on behalf of the student.

The preferred method for submitting the Change of Major/Minor Form is to attach one of the forms below to an e-mail addressed to das@chapman.edu. The email must be sent through the student's Chapman e-mail account for authentication.

Printed and signed forms may be faxed to (714) 628-3402, or mailed to the Registrar's Office DAS.

Students under the 2007/2008 catalog have the option to declare an Inter/Multidisciplinary Cluster. This is required for students who will not be completing a minor or a second major.

Students intending to change their catalog year to 2007/2008 should submit the Change of Major/Minor Form (2007/2008 Catalog). Students in the 2006/2007 catalog or prior and are considering moving their catalog year forward to the 2007/2008 catalog, should review the Things to Consider Before Changing to the 2007/2008 Catalog webpage, or its printable pdf version.

For necessary changes to your major or minor requirements, request your department to submit a Revision to Program Requirements form to the Registrar’s Office, signed by your department's chair and detailing the change. For detailed information on your program of study, please review your University Catalog.

Completed forms processed by the Registrar's Degree Audit Specialists may be confirmed by viewing your Program Evaluation from Web Advisor.
