For admission purposes a student’s interest is recorded in Banner as the field of study/major. Prior to CAST registration, students that respond to the survey with a change in interest will have their field of study/major updated in Banner.

Understanding Tulane Banner configuration of Curriculum

  • The curriculum is the program defined as: School + Degree + Level (e.g.,  LABA_UG), followed by the field of study/ major(s) and minor(s) (e.g., ENGL=English)

  • Programs, majors, and minors are assigned priorities in increments of 10, 20,30 etc. ; priority 10 program is the primary program, with a priority 10 primary major. 

  • The primary major must be in the program’s school (e.g., the primary priority 10 program is LABA_UG, the primary priority 10 major must be in the School of Liberal Arts, could be ANTH, COMM, ENGL, SOCI, UNDL etc.

  • In order to associate an undeclared major with a college within the University, we have created specific “undeclared” majors to be used by each school.  For example , UNDL=Undeclared Liberal Arts, UNDB=Undeclared Business, UNDS=Undeclared  Science and Engineering etc.
