I'm starting to get bored of my training split and I want to change it up. Since I'm on a minicut right now, would there be any point in changing up my split while being in a deficit?

I was the same way a few months ago, then I read this article: http://muscularstrength.com/article/Muscle-Hypertrophy-Explained-A-Muscle-Building-Guide-For-Beginner-And-Advanced-Alike and started a Push/Pull/Leg routine. Haven't looked back since.

Robert,

I agree with James (ABRamped) and suggest full body as they burn more calories and will help you lean out faster. They also train the body the way it functions normally meaning as a complete unit not a sum of its parts. Variety as well as a change shocks the body and muscles into new adaptation - meaning growth and leaness :-)

Good article, I haven't done a push pull legs since I started working out. I should give it a try

Thanks John, I've always stuck to my split until I was finished but next week I'll switch it up.
