Declaring the Major Home Undegraduate Program Declaring the Major
Students are encouraged to declare the major as early as possible in their academic careers.
Declaring the major is a three step process.
- Start at your college office. Pick up a Declaration of Major form and have a college academic
advisor complete and sign Section 1.
- Bring your form to the Anthropology Department Office. You can work with the undergraduate
advisor, peer advisors, and faculty to design a preliminary academic plan. Once you have a
preliminary plan, have Section 2 of the form filled out and signed by a permanent faculty
member. The Anthropology Department does not assign faculty advisors; you may choose according to
your interests.
- Bring your form back to the department office. The undergraduate advisor will give the form a
final review and sign Section 3.
If you are a transfer student, you must provide the department with a copy of your UCSC Transfer Credit
Summary and an unofficial copy of your transcript(s) from any institution where you took classes that
you plan to apply to the Anthropology major.
