Thinking about your major and fall classes?
Scheduling your classes for the fall semester is one of the most important steps to becoming a new Raider! You'll get to make your fall semester schedule when you attend Preview, so the first step in scheduling classes is to make your Preview reservation online! Then, while you are at Preview, you'll meet with an academic advisor who will help you choose the right classes and leave Preview with a schedule that will help you hit the ground running in August!
 
Speaking of Preview, you indicated your major of interest on your admission application and your Preview reservation form, but did you know that this is not actually a declaration of a major? Students officially declare a major after their first semester at Mount Union. While you won't complete any official forms until your second semester, you can still take classes in your intended major (with the exception of education majors, who will start their first education class during their second semester). The declaration of major and minor forms are online, and your First Year Seminar instructor will help you find and complete these forms.

Your First Year Seminar instructor will also be your academic advisor as you schedule classes for your second semester at Mount Union, and that professor will remain your academic advisor until you declare your major. Once you've declared a major, you will be assigned a new advisor in the academic department in which your major is housed, and you could begin planning the rest of your course schedule with that new advisor as early as Spring Semester 2017.


If you haven't decided on a major quite yet, don't worry at all! There is plenty of time to learn all about them and exploring what possible professions you might pursue with a degree from Mount Union. There are also supports in place to help you make these decisions, including your faculty advisor and the Center for Student Success. In fact, Marci Muckleroy, in the Center for Student Success, work with many students throughout the year to help them decide which major, minor, or career they would like to explore. For more information, emai Marci Muckleroy  or call the Center for Student Success at (330) 823-8685.
Dual and College Credit Transcript Request
If you intend to bring in credit from a dual credit, PSEO, or College-Credit Plus program, you will need to order an official transcript from the college or university that awarded the credit. Transcripts must be sent to the Office of Admission.
