Students who wish to change or declare a major in Family Science can only do so through a 'Change of Major Workshop.'

Family Science 'Change of Major Workshops' help facilitate the change of major process. With one visit, you will have the opportunity to learn about the FMSC major and our requirements, as well as complete your Academic Plan and leave the workshop as a new FMSC student. Normally, the change of major process would entail meeting with the FMSC Undergraduate Coordinator and the SPHL Academic Advisor separately in two different visits. The Change of Major workshops will enable you to complete both steps in one location at one time. Please know that we do not change students’ majors outside of a workshop.

To register for a workshop, please call the Department of Family Science at 301.405.3672 or visit us at our front desk in 1204 Marie Mount Hall. Students must register in advance for a workshop in order to participate.
