How do I change my major?

After commencing on the course, a student may feel that the choice of major undertaken is not suitable due to personal or academic reasons. The student may consider applying for a change of major by submitting a request with the Enrolment/ Change of Enrolment Form via email to academic@curtin.edu.sg.

Approval of an application is determined by Curtin University and credit for recognised learning is re-assessed based on the new major. Applications must be submitted before Week 9 of the current study period for it to be effective in the following study period. Once the application is submitted, it will be forwarded to Curtin University for assessment and approval. Students will be informed of the outcome via email.

Change of Major application is processed within 4 weeks upon submission of the request.

For approved applications, students who decide to proceed with the change of major will have their existing Student’s Pass cancelled. A new Student’s Pass application will be lodged with the Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA), subject to approval.

Students will also be required to sign a new Student Contract and the existing contract will be terminated. The Fee Protection Insurance for the existing course will be cancelled with the insurance provider and a new insurance policy will be purchased accordingly.
