You may want to begin by going to the Career Services Office on your campus for personalized help. Self-assessment is a critical first step.

A next step would be to do an in-depth study of the majors available to you. The University Catalog is a wonderful place to start. Look at the criteria for entering the major, the course requirements and the course descriptions. Are you eligible? Do you like the required courses? Look at all of your options before narrowing down your choices.

The next step would be to speak with faculty and students in the major. Ask questions! Is this a major that you truly like and that you feel you can be successful in? Be sure to know all of the academic and experiential requirements for degree completion. What careers may be associated with various programs of study?

When you have made a decision and are ready to act upon it, stop by the Registrar's office to begin the paperwork process.

Taking the time and effort in making this decision will be worthwhile!
