If you would like to speak with an HDFS advisor to ask questions before declaring your major to HDFS, please email one of the FSHD academic advisors. 

 

Students in the HDFS major will be charged a $200 per semester student fee.  This fee will begin once you have reached junior status (completed 60 units of coursework). The student fee supports professional development workshops and events, professional development courses like HDFS 384, internship coordination, and other advising services you have access to as you reach junior status in the HDFS program.

 

*Please note only HDFS academic advisors can declare the HDFS major for a student.
