Adding a minor
If you want to declare a minor, the first step is to visit with the department that offers the minor. The department will direct you to follow a specific application process. This usually includes meeting with an adviser and filling out a form, which is then filed with the college office of the department offering the minor. That college, in turn, informs the College of Design.
Adding a second major from within CDes

Please note that you must meet the admission requirements of the new major; for some majors; your application will be included in the application pool for the following admitting term.
Adding a second major from outside of CDes
If you want to earn a second major, you must first meet with an adviser in the department offering that major. The department will direct you to follow a specific application process, which usually includes meeting with an adviser and filling out a form. The form is then filed and shared with both the college office of the department offering the major and the College of Design.
Adding a second degree
If you are interested in pursuing a second degree (for example; if you are pursuing a B.S. and would like to add a B.A.), first meet with the department offering the major to find out their specific application process. Then, fill out the Application for Admission to Additional Undergraduate Degree Program (PDF) form; following the directions attached to the form. When it’s time to graduate, your application for degree will ask you specific questions about additional majors, minors, and other degrees. You may finish all degrees, majors, and minors at one time, but you are not required to do so
