When a student wants to declare two credentials from different programs.  

Examples: 

  • General Occupational/Technical Studies AAS degree and Practical Nursing.  
  • Welding Technology AAS and Industrial Maintenance AAS.  
  • Associate in Arts and Associate in Science.

  • Full name: 
  • Student ID # (a 9 digit number that begins with 00): 
  • I wish to declare a second program in addition to the one I currently have.  
  • I want to add INSERT PROGRAM AND TRACK (if applicable) HERE.
