The University's goal is to adjust to shifting student interests and to accommodate all qualified students in the undergraduate majors of their choice. When limitations of space, faculty, or other resources make this goal unattainable, the college dean responsible for the major may request administrative enrollment controls.

Students generally are admitted to the controlled major after completion of specified courses and on the basis of academic merit as measured by their cumulative grade-point average (GPA) after three semesters. Students who apply for entrance to a controlled major must be enrolled in the college offering the major or in the Division of Undergraduate Studies and declared as heading toward the college.

Contact the advising center of the appropriate college for more information about a particular controlled major.

The following majors are controlled for first-year students who enter the University in summer or fall 1998 or spring 1999 and, typically, would be applying to enter the major in the spring of 2000:
