UNIVERSITY CATALOG: 2023-2024

Change of Objective

Enrolled graduate students may seek admission to an alternate degree program by filling out a Change of Objective form. The form can be obtained online. Transfer of previously earned units to the alternate program must have the approval of the department to which the student applies. Students on academic notice (formerly academic probation) may only change their program or submit a Change of Objective form for processing once they are in good academic standing.

Students cannot be enrolled in more than one degree program. Upon completion of the first graduate degree, students must reapply to the University to pursue an additional degree.

The Office of Graduate Studies will neither accept nor consider Change of Objective forms submitted by doctoral or master’s students who have been disqualified and not reinstated in their graduate program. Disqualified graduate students must reapply as previously disqualified students if they want to return to CSUN in another program.
