[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]LOL. They don't let your freshman just switch majors, OP. You can't run that game, they are on to that one. Your kid could double major, or minor, but a double major requires departmental approval. Paperwork, signatures from department heads. There isn't a guarantee.[/quote] Disagree with the above. Typically one declares one's major in the sophomore year unless the student applied as a direct admit to a particular major such as business or computer science. Changing majors does not require any of the paperwork described above at the colleges and universities with which I am familiar unless trying to get into an impacted, oversubscribed major. At Northwestern University, one can change majors easily & more than once. Also easy to double major in different schools/colleges at Northwestern. State/public universities may have more stringent rules for switching majors if it involved switching schools/colleges within that university.[/quote]
