Exploratory

Undecided on which path you should choose for your major or career goals? You are not alone. It is estimated that 20-50% of students enter college as undecided and 75% change their major at least once. Deciding on a course of study or major that is right for you is an important process and we have many resources and counselors to help you.

Find your why

Below are just a few of the benefits of choosing the right major early in college according to Forbes.com:

  • Be happier studying subjects for which you are passionate and have talent.
  • Be better prepared to obtain solid internships, which is critical for good jobs.
  • Avoid the college "stress crisis" because you will see a clear path to graduation.
  • Maintain an elevated level of self-confidence because you are achieving high grades and gaining recognition.
  • Have less student loan debt because you will not need extra years to graduate.
  • Be ready to excel in a career that is engaging and enjoyable.
