There are some people in this world who knew what they wanted to study by the age of 5. Luckily, most of us do not fall into this category.
So if you don’t know what to study before you go to college, please don’t worry. There will be plenty of opportunity to find the major that is best suited for you. Sometimes this happens as a quick Eureka moment, but more likely it will be a slow and winding road to your perfect major. Please remember that your choice of major doesn't always dictate your career path. Many individuals end up in careers unrelated to their undergraduate majors.
Many students who are not sure about their major start with a liberal arts undergraduate education. This can be at a liberal arts school or at a university where the first and possibly second year is basically a liberal arts education, giving you plenty of time and opportunity to find your passion.
However, there are some things you can do to help yourself make up your mind along the way. Here are some ideas:
9. Double major or minor: Some students choose to double major or add a minor to their primary major to gain a broader education or specialize in a complementary field.
10. Flexibility: Keep in mind that it's not uncommon for people to change their majors or career paths during their academic journey. Be open to the possibility of change as you continue to learn and grow.
