PETITION FOR CHANGE OF COLLEGE

The decision to change from one college to another should be made thoughtfully as this change will affect

important areas of your life. You will have new academic advisers, a new college address, and you will

graduate with your new college.

Additionally, an approved change of college petition does not guarantee housing at your new college nor

does it terminate any existing housing application/contract. If you live on campus and are considering

a change of college, you should discuss this with the housing staff at your current college before

proceeding.
