Students with numeric classifications wanting to be classified ahead need to submit their written request to the Center for Advising Services. In addition to having the minimum number of credits required, as shown above, students wanting to be seniors or juniors must have been accepted into an area of major. (See Acceleration and Reclassification.)

Students wanting to be re-classified from full-time to part-time status, or from part-time to full-time status, should see an advisor in the Center for Advising Services prior to the semester of the change. (engineering and computer science students go to Lattimore 301.) Those who are not seniors will be asked to complete a brief form, needed to notify all relevant offices of all classification changes affecting tuition. (See Part-time Student Status.)
