Education, Health, and Human Sciences Exploratory Program


The College of Education, Health, and Human Sciences Exploratory program is for students who are considering transitioning into one of the majors in the College. Students are assigned to advisors based on program of interest. While following this track, students will be advised in the College’s Advising Center located in A332 Bailey Education Complex. Because this track is designed to help one transition into a major, it is imperative that students work closely with advisors to ensure that students select the appropriate courses. Exploratory students are required to meet with their advisor every semester.

All full-time, degree-seeking students who first entered Fall 2013 or later must transition out of the exploratory track 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 into a major no later than the end of their second tracking semester.
