23. How difficult is the process of changing your major?

You can initiate a change of major through the Academic Advising Office. For certain majors, such as nursing, admission to the program is competitive and must be approved by the department.  Department approval is also needed for a major change into elementary education, respiratory care, and mechanical engineering.

24. Do you have problems scheduling the required classes in order to graduate in time?

Students have the opportunity to work with an academic advisor. The advisor will work with the student to plan his/her academic career from freshman year until graduation.

The flexibility of scheduling allows for a variety of course selections to meet students' individual needs.
