How to Declare
Students must have a minimum grade point average of 2.0 before declaring any major in the College of Letters and Science and are required to declare when 60 units have been completed. Registration for classes (Tele-BEARS) will be blocked by the College if a major has not been declared during the student's junior year. If the student needs an "Adviser Code" at the time of registration, ISF will only release that code with a completed ISF major application.
In order to be considered for admission to the Interdisciplinary Studies Field Major, you must consult a faculty adviser and complete an application form, available below for download and in printed form outside of 301 Campbell. As part of the application, you must prepare a statement describing your proposed Area of Concentration and a tentative list of required courses that support the idea. You must have completed one of the world civilization requirements or be enrolled in the course needed to complete the requirement at the time of application.
There is no application deadline. Applications may be submitted to a faculty adviser at any time during the fall or spring semester. It is required that the applicant discuss the area of concentration and proposed courses with one of the faculty advisers before submitting the application packet.
