About Declaring the Undergraduate Major

Prospective majors must complete two of the lower-division 10-series courses in history of art and visual culture or equivalent transfer courses before declaring the major. All students considering this major are encouraged to consult with the department adviser and/or a member of the faculty as soon as possible. Students must attend one of the quarterly declaration of major meetings with the department adviser to finalize the Proposed Study Plan and Declaration of Major/Minor petition form.
