An impacted major is one that is limiting enrollment.

- Division of Biological Sciences
- All majors
- School of Engineering
- Aerospace Engineering

- Bioengineering: Biotechnology
- Mechanical Engineering
Impacted majors for transfer students:

Note that a major requiring pre-major status is not the same as an impacted major.
