I Want to...

Change My Major to Pre-Business

In order to change your major, you will want to ensure you are wanting to change your major to Business Administration please follow the following steps. 

1. Please view the appropriate "Change of Major" video. 
2. Complete the short quiz to get in contact with your designated Academic Advisor. 

Please access the short quiz here!

Students are eligible to change their major if they meet the following critieria: 

  • Have good academic standing (2.0 campus and cumulative GPA)
  • Have less than 144 units at degree completion 

If you are unable to change your major due to your academic standing, you will want to work with your advisor to work on the appropriate courses that will work for your intended major. 

Please keep in mind that if you are planning to change your major into Pre-Business, you will eventually need to get your GPA to a 2.25 to declare your option. 

We encourage students to change their major as soon as possible. Our major is a high unit major and the more courses you take that do not count towards the Business Administration major can count against you when trying to change your major. 

The best time of the year to change your major is 1-2 months prior to registration. We can assist you with registering for the correct courses for the next term. 

If you reach out right before the term begins, it can be more challenging for you to find open courses to satisty degree requirements. 

Once you watch the Change of Major video and successfully complete the quiz an advisor will review your information between 3-7 business days. Please allow 3-7 business days before contacting your advisor. 

If you are eligible to change your major, your new advisor will provide you with a change of major packet. If you are ineligible to change your major, your advisor will let you know why you are unable to change your major and what your options are at that time.
