[Notice] Department/Major Change Application for 2026 Spring Semester (ONLY for 1st and 2nd semester students)
Department/Major Change Application Period: Jan 6(Tue) ~ Jan 14(Wed), 2026
To change your current department/major, fill out the application form(attached file) with your transcript(needs to include the most recent semester) and obtain signatures from both of your current department chairman and chairman of the department which you want to change to.
You need to obtain permission from your current department FIRST, and then obtain permission from the department you wish to change to SECOND. DO NOT ask for a signature from the department you wish to change to first.
If you wish to change majors within the same department(i.e.: AI & IT Business to International Business), you will need to obtain both signature from your current department.
Prior to visiting each department chairman, please send them an email beforehand and enquire about their available schedule.
After you have filled out and received the signatures, visit the GSIS office and submit the completed form and copy of your transcript(must include your most recent semester).
Only 1st and 2nd semester students can apply for changing majors.
Applying for major change is only allowed ONCE during your study, and a student can change their department/major before their third semester begins. We cannot change your department/major once the scholarship process begins, so make sure you apply within schedule.
Tuition is different for each department. It is the student’s responsibility to be aware of the change in tuition fees.
Graduation requirements differ for each department. If you change your department/major, be aware that you may have to enroll for additional semesters depending on the courses you have taken.
