About Bachelor of Arts - Open Major

Program Description

Can't decide on a major? Apply to the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences as "open" major. Students will work closely with an adviser to select a major, and with careful planning they can still graduate in four years.

About 20 percent of new students entering the university each year haven’t made a final choice about their major or their career. These students usually enroll in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, declaring their major as “open major.” They plan to choose a major after taking courses in the General Education CORE Program or elective courses in fields of possible interest.
