University Classification and Majors

Students entering the University of North Florida as freshmen may not be classified within a department or division and may be assigned to an academic advisor in the First Year Advising Office. After completion of 30 credit hours, students must declare a major and establish an official program of study within one of these academic units: the Brooks College of Health; the Coggin College of Business; the College of Arts and Sciences; the College of Computing, Engineering and Construction; or the College of Education and Human Services.

Association with an academic unit effectively classifies the student, facilitates advisement and career planning, and enables the development of an appropriate program of study plan to support timely graduation. This program of study plan may be amended to accommodate additional required courses as well as waivers and/or substitutions of courses. The programs listed in this catalog show the generally accepted courses necessary for completion of degree program requirements.

The University may disallow a student's continued enrollment in a major if it is determined they are not meeting degree progression standards. See the official degree progression and change of major policy for further details.
