CHOOSING/CHANGING MAJORS

Native students will be permitted to change majors provided they are on-track according to the minimum progression standards detailed in the undergrad catalog.  If you are not on-track for the appropriate semester, an academic advisor in the AAC can assist you in a plan that will allow you to be admitted to the major of your choice or discuss an alternate plan.  All students wishing to change to a major in  Liberal Arts and Sciences must first discuss their plans with an academic advisor in the AAC.  Students wishing to change to a major outside of the CLAS must contact the other college directly.

 

ACADEMIC ADVISING

The Academic Advising Center is responsible for acting as an information and referral center to provide faculty advisors and students with timely and accurate information on university-wide requirements, policies, procedures, and referrals to appropriate services.  Students ultimately are responsible for knowing and fulfilling all university, college, and major requirements for graduation.  Also, students are responsible for knowing and adhering to all university policies and deadlines.  It is recommended that you meet with an advisor in your college each semester to discuss your academic progress.  Questions about major requirements should be directed to an undergraduate advisor in the major department.  The Academic Advising Center is open M-F from 8-5 and students will be seen on a first come, first served basis.  Appointments can also be made by calling: (352) 392-1521.
 

UNDERGRADUATE PHILOSOPHY SOCIETY

The Undergraduate Philosophy Society (or philsoc as we affectionately call it because the grove account name had to be short) is intended for any student at the University of Florida with an interest in philosophy, not just majors and minors. Even if you've never taken a philosophy class, you could find the discussion very interesting. (Stranger things have happened.)  The Society holds meetings,  has guest speakers and maintains an e-mail list.  For more information please stop by 330 Griffin-Floyd Hall.
