Already a UB student?

If you are a current UB student in a non-management major and wish to add or change your major to one of our management majors, submit a change of major request.  You will receive an email with your admission decision.  If you are admitted, the email will include instructions for making an academic advisement appointment.

Submit a major information request if you aren't ready to change your major, but want to learn more about one of our management majors. An initial evaluation of your academic record with information about the major will be sent to you. 

An Advisor is available for quick questions regarding major changes on Wednesdays, 10:30-11:30 am. Simply come to 204 Alfiero Center during the allotted time.

When to Submit Your Major Change Request

You can submit a Major Change Request before any prerequisite courses for a management major is completed. If you are in the last prerequisite course for the major, submit your request at least four weeks prior to your enrollment date to avoid delay in registering for upper-division courses in the major.

Admission Criteria for Management Majors
