I think it is as simple as getting a majors form and filling it in confirming the change of accounting to marketing

You're kidding me, right. These questions are precisely why "Student Enquiries" exist.

...in order to do both degrees concurrently. I assume this will mean meeting the internal degree transfer requirements for your BComm-accg to bcomm-mktg (probably 2 or 2.5).

(Hakz, re change of major forms -- the various BCom degrees are separate degrees. You can transfer between them (i.e. from a BCom-Mktg to BCom-Accg) in the same way you transfer between any other degrees: gotta meet the internal degree transfer rules. That's my memory of it, anyway. It's probably different if you're just doing the straight BCom, and want to change your major, but BCom-marketing is a separate degree.)
