Students may remain in undeclared liberal arts through their sophomore year. Registered nurses with valid active licenses who meet admissions criteria may pursue a bachelor of science degree with a major in nursing. Most upper level major courses are taught at night, so students can work while finishing their degree. Any UNHM student admitted to the Bachelor of Arts degree program at UNHM planning to enroll in majors in Durham should follow the procedure outlined below. Be aware that each academic department on the Durham campus has established criteria and procedures for accepting interdepartmental transfer students.
Some departments have a specified time period to submit transfer applications.
It is the student's responsibility to know the requirements of the department to which they wish to transfer. The UNHM Academic Counseling Office has access to this information or students may also wish to consult directly with the appropriate Durham department. Students are advised to begin this process well before the start of the semester. It may take several days for the UNHM Admissions Office to assemble the needed paperwork and obtain the required signatures before students can proceed to Durham. Students should meet with a UNHM academic counselor to discuss the requirements and procedures for the Durham major in which they are interested.
