The College of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources Exploratory program is designed for students who are deciding among one or more majors in the College. It allows students to explore major options as well as make progress toward graduation through the completion of general education courses. Exploratory students are required to meet with their advisor every semester.

All first-time, first-year UT Knoxville students must transition out of the exploratory track and into a major no later than the end of the fourth tracking semester. Transfer students admitted as exploratory students must transition out of the exploratory track and into a major no later than the end of their second tracking semester.
