Prospective Freshmen and Transfer Students
Choosing where to apply and what to study can be difficult. As you consider your options, we recommend identifying your academic interests and exploring opportunities inside and outside the classroom.
When you’re ready to apply, the NC State admissions office is your best source of information for application deadlines, requirements and review processes.
Current NC State Students
Are you interested in adding a second major, adding a minor or changing your degree to one of our programs? We can help with that.
To add or change majors, students must complete NC State’s Change of Degree Application (CODA). Eligible students must have completed 12 or more graded credit hours at NC State and have a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher. Additionally, Interdisciplinary Studies will give preference to students who meet specific qualifications for their desired program.
