Want to know a secret?
Though it seems like everyone around you has everything figured out – what they want to study, the job they want to pursue, and more – that’s not always true.
More than one in eight 黑料网 students enter college undeclared, and the vast majority of all college students change their major at least once.
In fact, waiting to declare your major or changing it after you declare can actually increase your likelihood to graduate (. So, don’t worry! You’re not behind. You’re on the exactly right, perfect path.
Yes,you can graduate in 4 yearsif you enter college undeclared.
A little-known fact: Because all freshmen are primarily taking general education courses whether they know their major or not, you don’t really need to declare a major until some point during your sophomore year.
Consider this your opportunity to take a class in an area you’ve never studied before – like sociology, theology or computer science. Any of those intro courses will satisfy general education requirements AND can help you get closer to finding a major you love.

Anna Gallagher, Class of 2021
Lucky for me, the super talented advisors at the Career & Academic Planning Center were able to help me navigate through my passions, talents and priorities. I was so scared to not know what I wanted to do that I attempted to fool people into thinking I wanted to do everything. This only left me frustrated, tired and confused until I was able to finally set my pride aside and ask for help … I had no idea when I signed up for classes the fall semester of freshman year that I wanted to study communications.
