Change of Major Procedure for Saudi Arabian Cultural Mission (SACM) Scholars
1. The student must submit a change of major form to the academic advisor of the New
Major. Go the http://www.tnstate.edu/sociologv/Change%20of%20Maior%20Form.pdf
for the change of major form. Complete the form, sign it and take the form to the advisor
for the gaining (new major) department. Bring the signed/approved copy to Mr. Brinkley
(Crouch Hall - Room 106). Ensure you get the change of major form with the new
major/advisor's signature.
Give this form to your advisor and ensure they email to information requested in Step 2
below to [email protected].
2. We no longer create “letters” for SACM scholars for Change of Major. We will provide
the information to the SACM advisor via email. We request the new major advisor send
an email to [email protected] with the following information:
Total# of credit hours completed that will be applied for the degree your (New
Major) department will award
Total# of credit hours transferred from previous major
Total# of credit hours enrolled for the current semester (Spring 2016)
Total# of credit hours remaining to meet with the (New Major) department
graduation requirement
Estimated graduate date – assume 15 hours per semester for Spring and Fall
Semesters
3. SACM requires the total number of credit hour for online classes. The International
Office (DIA) will provide this information.
4. DIA will forward the Change of Major Form and information in #2 above to the SACM
advisor and cc’d the SACM scholar, the department advisor, and DIA staff. SACM
approval is the issuance of an updated Financial Guarantee with the SACM Scholar’s
new major.
5. The SACM Scholar is responsible for requesting the updated Financial Guarantee for
SACM and delivery of the updated Financial Guarantee to DIA. Once the update
Financial Guarantee is received by DIA, the SACM Scholar will take the Change of
Major Form to the TSU Records Office for processing the Change of Major Request.
