What the CSSFYE Offers Freshman Studies Majors

The Center for Student Success and First-Year Experience offers professional advising to all freshman studies (undeclared) students. Entering the University of Mississippi as a Freshman Studies major gives you the chance to explore your interests and majors before you make a decision.

  • The largest cohort of entering freshmen is in freshman studies, so being unsure on a major is not uncommon.
  • Your professional academic advisor will guide you through taking courses that fit your interests to help you choose a major.

The University requires that you declare a major by the time you reach 45 credit hours.
