Degrees & Majors

TBCC students declare a major when they complete the college application. Some students find that once they start their education their interests change. Students have the option to change their major accordingly during the registration period prior to each term. A student’s declared major can impact his/her eligibility for financial aid and the awarding of a degree or certificate. We encourage you to meet with a career education advisor or a financial aid advisor if you have questions about your major at any time.

Change of degree/certificate/major is available through the online student portal MyTBCC on the student tab. A change of degree/certificate/major changes your catalog rights to the most current year, as explained below.

Associate degrees require a minimum of 90 credits in coursework numbered “100” or above to complete the degree and graduate. At least thirty credits of the coursework earned toward the degree, with a satisfactory grade, must be earned at TBCC.
