Before making a change, it’s important to meet with your navigator (or admissions counselor). Some changes may affect your graduation timeline, financial aid, or transfer plans.
What to Know Before You Switch Programs
Changing your program of study, enrollment status, or catalog year may:
- Affect your financial aid eligibility
- Delay your graduation
- Impact your ability to transfer to a four-year college
That’s why we review your situation before making the change official.
Who You Meet with Depends on Your Student Status
Changing your major starts with a quick conversation. The person you meet with depends on whether you’ve already taken classes at Ozarks Tech or are just getting started.
What Happens After Your Meeting
Your navigator or admissions counselor will submit the paperwork on your behalf. This paperwork covers changes to your:
- Program of study (major)
- Enrollment status
- Catalog year
Changes are typically processed within three business days. You’ll see your updated information reflected in your student record once complete.
Request to Pursue Multiple Programs
You can request to pursue more than one academic program at once. Start by speaking with your college navigator. They’ll review your request and work with the Registrar’s Office for final approval.
Need Help Choosing a Program?
Your navigator can help you explore the right fit based on your goals.
These programs are often referred to as ‘transfer degrees’ and are designed for students who intend to transfer to a 4-year institution.
These programs are considered ‘workforce ready’ and are designed for students who intend to enter the workforce after graduation and who do not plan to complete a bachelor’s degree or higher.
These programs require a separate admission process that can be very competitive due to the limited number of available spots. Students are encouraged to plan their application timeline carefully. By selecting one of these options on the program change form, you are declaring your interest in applying to the program(s) indicated and will be provided with a pre-admission degree audit to help with admission coursework planning.
Please note the following:
- Pre-Admission programs are not financial aid eligible and therefore cannot be a student’s only active program; the selected option(s) will be added in addition to the current active degree seeking program.
- You may declare interest in up to 3 Health Science pre-admission programs
- Once accepted to a Health Science program, the Health Sciences office will update your official degree seeking program accordingly.
