Romance Languages Advising
Declare a major or minor in French, Italian, Spanish or Romance Languages (including Portuguese) by emailing gcflightpath@uoregon.edu and indicate which major/minor you would like to declare and provide your student 95#. Advisors will submit your request to the Registrar’s office. Once you are added as a major or minor, the department will assign a faculty advisor/mentor, whose name will appear at the top of your Degree Guide (on Duckweb), and with whom you can consult in the future.
