Major Requirements and Catalog Year

One thing to keep in mind when advising to a student’s major requirements, students’ major requirements are linked to the year they declare their major. If a student was admitted into EWU Fall 2018 yet does not declare their major until Spring 2022, the student must follow the major requirements from the 2021-22 catalog and the general education requirements from the 2018-2019 catalog. This means you may be required to look up requirements from two different catalog years.

Thankfully, the university has an electronic database for catalog years: Catalog Archives.
