How do I change my degree/major or add a minor?

If you are in a degree program other than a B.Sc. (i.e., B.A., B.P.A., B. Eng., B.S.W., B. Cog Sci), you will have to submit an Internal Admissions Application.

If you are currently in a B.Sc. program and wish to change your major (i.e., Biology, Chemistry, Earth Science, Food Science and Nutrition, etc.), you will need to request a Change of Program Elements in Carleton Central. This ‘change of program elements’ is also used to add a minor.

The Academic Advising Centre can assist in providing a general overview of some program majors or minors. More info available here. Once you have a specific program or minor in mind, consult with the major or minor’s Undergraduate Administrator/Advisor to ensure you’re aware of remaining course requirements and pathways to graduation.
