Majors on your Diploma

It is possible for a student to complete more than one major within one degree (for example, a B.A.).  To be recognized as graduating with multiple majors, a student must declare the additional major(s) with the appropriate discipline or program no later than the beginning of the student's final year of study. The completion of additional majors within one degree will be noted at the time of graduation by appropriate entries on the student's transcript and on the diploma.

It is also possible for a student to complete a major in one degree concurrently with additional majors from a different degree (for example, a major in a B.S. concurrently with an additional major from a B.A.). By declaring which major is the primary major (for example, Biochemistry) the student also declares which degree he or she will receive (in this case, a B.S.). Students must make this declaration no later than the beginning of the student's final year of study, and the primary major degree will be noted at the time of graduation by appropriate entries on the student's transcript and on the diploma.

Important:  Majors within the other degree will be noted only on the student's transcript.  The University does not award two degrees for multiple majors that are completed concurrently.

Important: Only majors are noted on the diploma (For example, Business Administration, Liberal Studies, and Visual and Performing Arts). Options, concentrations, specializations and minors are included on transcripts.

For more information, please see the section on Graduation Requirements in the University Catalog.
