Dear Undeclared Students, 

In recent years, nearly half of each year’s freshman class has entered Providence College without declaring an academic major. Some students have already narrowed the field of possible majors to a “short list.” Others want to learn more about the College’s 49 majors before they make a choice.

Undeclared students enjoy a unique opportunity to explore their interests, tap their talents, research options, evaluate alternatives, and make informed academic decisions before selecting a suitable academic major.

The Undeclared Advising Program provides students the resources and advisors they need to thoroughly explore their academic options during the first three semesters at Providence. Faculty members from nearly all academic departments serve as academic advisors – the foundation for the program. Their advice is supplemented with targeted seminars and workshops to help students select a suitable major.

The Undeclared Advising Office is located in Harkins Hall 210 and can be reached at (401)865-2177.  Please feel free to contact us with questions about your academic options.

Sincerely,

Carol B. Crafts, Ph.D.
Associate Dean of Undergraduate Studies & Director, Undeclared Advising Program
