Change of Programs and Dual Majors

Change of Programs

Students who wish to change their program of study must submit a Change of Program request through an advisor at the One-Stop Enrollment and Success Center. The One-Stop Advisor will forward the request to the appropriate departments for approval and will notify the student once a decision has been made. Students are encouraged to check the Wiregrass Georgia Technical College website for program-specific financial aid eligibility details, such as Pell Grants or the HOPE Career Grant.

Students changing from a diploma-level program to a degree-level program may need to meet with their One-Stop Advisor or the Financial Aid Office to discuss any financial aid implications. Additionally, students entering a degree program may be required to complete a HOPE Scholarship Evaluation form.

Dual Majors

Students may pursue dual majors if they meet the following criteria:

• The student is enrolled in the final semester of their current program.
• Both programs have equivalent financial aid eligibility.
• The student is in good academic standing.
• The student holds regular admission status in both programs.

Students interested in adding a dual major must meet with their One-Stop Advisor to submit the request. The request will be reviewed and processed by Financial Aid staff, representatives from Veterans Affairs (VA) and the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) if applicable, and approved by One-Stop processing staff. The One-Stop Advisor will notify the student when the dual major has been officially added.

Note: Except for a few exceptions, dual majors are only permitted when pursued at the same award level, whether degree, diploma, or technical certificate.
