Advising for Undeclared/Undecided
Advising for First Year
- If you are undeclared/undecided during your first or second semester, consult first year course options for advising based on your placement level. When you declare, you may still need to complete math courses for your major
- Sometimes, you can use your GE B4 course to test out a major so view Math for My Major to see GE B4 course recommendations to consider. If none are specified, check out the First Year Course Options page
- For those that are really not sure what direction they are heading for a major or interest, it can be advisable to plan for GE B4 for your second semester. This allows you exposure to Chico State and the major programs we have to offer. After completing first semester courses it may help to identify interests and considerations of major, minors, or certificate programs
- Use Focus2 to hone your skills, abilities, and interests to research and test out various majors or career paths to consider
- You should always confirm requirements and degree planning with the University Catalog, academic advisors, and campus e-advising tools
- Reminder: first-year students are required to take math/quantitative reasoning and written communication course(s) within their first year (GE Area A2 & B4 if not already completed; per CSU Supportive Pathways for First-Year Students ensured by the CSU Chancellor's Office)
