  • The online Major/Minor change form is not available yet.  If you would like to add a Major/Minor please email a tenure track faculty member in the department with your request and ask them to copy you and registrar@bowdoin.edu in their reply.  The faculty member will not have access to your course information so you will need to outline the courses you have already taken by providing them with a PDF of your Unofficial Academic History from your Degree Progress page in Polaris.  If you only want to drop a major or minor with no additions, you can email registar@bowdoin.edu (no approval is required).  The Registrar’s Office will be processing all major/minor change requests which have faculty approval before registration course requests are processed.

If you are currently living on campus and considering moving to remote learning, you must complete the Intent to Learn Remotely form to alert your dean to your potential plans. If you are considering taking a leave from the College, please request the Intent to Withdraw form from your dean instead.

The Intent to Learn Remotely form is only for students who are considering changing from on campus to remote learning for the remainder of the semester.
