Once you have met with one of our faculty, you should fill out the Registrar’s “Declare Major” form. If you are already a major in another department, and you want to declare History as your second major, or just want to change your current major to History, please fill out the Registrar’s “Change Major Form“. These forms are very important as they will get your information into the PeopleSoft system and enter your name on the History Major list.
Once this is done, please drop off your History form (or email it if it is more convenient) to the History Department Office ([email protected]). If the Admin is not there, just slide the registration under the door.
